Gandhinagar (Gujarat) [India], September 22 (ANI): Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel will chair the monthly 'State SWAGAT' (State Wide Attention on Grievances by Application of Technology) online public grievance redressal programme on September 24, an official statement said on Tuesday.
According to an official release, citizens wishing to present their grievances before the Chief Minister can submit their representations in person on Thursday between 8:00 AM and 11:00 AM at the Chief Minister’s Public Relations Unit, Swarnim Sankul-2, in Gandhinagar.

He visited and inspected the newly constructed UNM Hospital premises and its various state-of-the-art facilities and gathered information about them. As part of the Seva Sankalp Abhiyan being organised across the country to mark 25 years of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s dedicated public service, Chief Minister dedicated this ambitious healthcare project to the tribal and rural citizens of the region, aimed at improving the health and well-being of people in remote tribal areas.
