The officials, who spoke on the occasion, said that some of the issues could not be solved on the spot owing to technical reasons and that they would provide an endorsement for the same.

To this, the Lokayukta SP instructed the officials to provide the information to complainants and for some of the complaints, the officials ensured of disposing of the applications after consulting their senior officials.
