TL;DR: After you report a civic issue, the system should acknowledge it, assign it to a department, and work toward a resolution. You can track status with your reference number. Here is what to expect and when to escalate.
What happens next: Most grievance systems (e.g. CPGRAMS, State portals) send an acknowledgment with a unique reference number. The complaint is then sent to the concerned department. You can check status online or via helpline. Resolution time depends on the type of issue — often 15 to 30 days for routine civic issues.
If there is no response: (1) Wait until the stated timeline is over. (2) Use the “first appeal” or escalation option on the same portal. (3) Keep a copy of your complaint and reference number. Escalation helps when the first level has not acted.
