Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar invited all the sarpanches, who are protesting against e-panchayat, for a dialogue here tomorrow.
Many sarpanches and gram sachivs during the past few days have organised a demonstration against the e-panchayat system at many places in Haryana.
The demands of the protesters include withdrawal of the e-panchayat system with immediate effect, execution of the Haryana Panchayati Raj Act, 1994, remuneration for gram sachivs on a par with patwaris and pension for gram sarpanches.
"They have been invited for a dialogue," he said.
"All their problems would be heard and redressed," Khattar told reporters here today.
The state government has been maintaining that the implementation of the e-panchayat project in Haryana would not only increase transparency, but would also help check corruption and make people repose greater faith in the Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) in the state.
