"Sometimes they (NRIs) do not even know which officer of the department to approach for resolving their problems. Even if such complainants/applicants come to India from abroad, they come only for a short time limit," he said.

The minister urged the chief secretary to constitute the NRI grievance redressal cell for easy follow-up and resolution of complaints/applications of NRIs (non resident Indians) in the state.
