Maharashtra Grievance Redressal Platform

Written By Gautham Krishna   | Updated on May 30, 2023



Maharashtra Grievance Redressal portal has been created to provide convenience to citizens of the state by allowing them to lodge a grievance through their mobile phones or computers. This removes the need for them to appear at any location and file a physical grievance. In addition, it provides them the facility of tracking the live status of their complaint, and providing feedback based on their satisfaction with the resolution.

The system also allows the Chief Minister’s Office (CMO) to closely track all lodged grievances, and ensure that corrective action is taken in each case.

The objective of the portal is to ensure speedy, convenient and effective redressal of citizen issues by the administration.

Kind of Grievances

Any grievances relating to the functioning of the Government offices in the State can be filed. The grievance could be policy related (Mantralaya Level) or field related (District Level).

How to file grievances on Maharashtra Grievance Redressal portal?

If an OTP is not received within 120 seconds of filing the request, a button "Resend OTP" will be enabled on the screen. A fresh OTP can then be requested by clicking on this button.

After logging into the system, the user name is pre-populated based on the email id that has been entered at the time of generation of OTP (e.g. if email entered is ABC@xyz.com, the name that is pre-populated will be "ABC"). This name can be modified at the time of filing the grievance, if required.
