Chennai: Health minister Ma. Subramanian on Tuesday reviewed the ‘Ungaludan Stalin’ initiative at G.M. Mahal in Nerkundram (Ward 148), Valasaravakkam Zone, and said the camps are emerging as a single-window solution for a range of govt services.Launched by chief minister M.K. Stalin on July 15 in Chidambaram, the outreach programme aims to conduct 10,000 such camps across the state by November, bringing government schemes and grievance redressal mechanisms closer to people.“What’s new about these camps is the scale and integration—services from 15 departments are being offered under one roof,” the minister told reporters. In Greater Chennai Corporation limits alone, 400 camps are planned—two in each of the 200 wards—with 109 being held this month. Six camps are being conducted daily in different localities, he added.A focus area at the Nerkundram camp was the Kalaignar Women’s Rights Fund scheme, with more than 10 exclusive counters set up to process applications. Trained volunteers from the Corporation assisted women with the forms, ensuring no intermediarieswereinvolved.
