ANANTNAG: Mission Director of National Health Mission (NHM), Nazim Zia Khan, today chaired a mega public darbar at Kokernag aimed to address public grievances, review development activities and tackle issues affecting the community.
Nazim Zia emphasized the pivotal role of such outreach programs in bridging the gap between the administration and the citizens for the effective implementation of government schemes. He highlighted the significance of senior government officials engaging directly with the people to address and resolve their concerns besides obtaining feedback on welfare and development programmes being launched in the area.

Nazim Zia commended the youth of Anantnag district for venturing into entrepreneurship thus transforming their lives and the lives of those connected with them in their businesses. He said that entrepreneurship has the potential to serve as an incredible source of economic growth, with entrepreneurs evolving into job providers rather than job seekers.
