The government of Jammu and Kashmir faced an influx of public grievances, with over 7,900 cases recorded in 2025, according to Rajya Sabha disclosures on Thursday. These complaints were managed via the Centralized Public Grievance Redress and Monitoring System (CPGRAMS).

To address this, the government introduced a set of reforms aimed at expediting the grievance redressal process. Beginning in April 2022, these changes reduced the response timeline from 30 days to 21 days, according to Union Minister of State for Personnel, Jitendra Singh.

The reforms call for integration of grievance platforms and establishment of dedicated cells. They also ensure senior-level reviews and emphasize the analysis of root causes. These steps aim to enhance efficiency, making the entire process more accessible and transparent for citizens.
