Go to the Central to complain about the resolved case
According to Mr. Nguyen Van Thom, the reason for the increase in petitions is that in 2024, the province will simultaneously implement many large-scale infrastructure investment projects, requiring land acquisition from many households.
Households subject to site clearance are afraid of their rights being affected, leading to petitions related to the implementation of compensation, support and resettlement policies.
Of the total 628 complaints under its jurisdiction, up to now, State administrative agencies at all levels have reviewed and resolved 569 cases. The results of the resolution show that 17 complaints were correct, 455 complaints were incorrect, 44 complaints were partially correct... After resolving the complaints, the citizens' legal rights and interests were restored to more than 5.3 billion VND and 470 square meters of various types of land.
"Some citizens went to Hanoi and central agencies to complain about old content that was considered and resolved by the Provincial People's Committee and central ministries," said Mr. Nguyen Van Thom.
The Chief Inspector of Binh Dinh province found that the work of receiving citizens and handling petitions of some agencies and units at the grassroots level still had errors; some cases of first-time complaint settlement were slow and not in accordance with regulations.
The above-mentioned shortcomings and limitations are caused by the fact that the state management work in the field of land management of some grassroots units is not strict, leading to inaccurate determination of land origin, time of land use, area of land recovered, and time of housing formation.
The application of compensation, support and resettlement policies in some units and localities is not guaranteed, affecting the legitimate rights and interests of citizens, giving rise to complaints...
