He further directed that complaints should only be closed after senior officials personally review the resolution report submitted by subordinate officers. He instructed all DMs and senior police officers to personally review 20% of all special closure cases from June and July 2025 and to divide the remaining cases among ADM- and ASP-level officers, with a report to be sent to the government within 15 days. Assessing the flood situation in the state, Goyal said that all flood-affected areas should be monitored regularly.
