Goa CM Helpline: Online Complaint Registration, Status Check & AI Features

The Government of Goa operates its official public grievance redressal system through CM Helpline 1905, managed by the Directorate of Public Grievances (DPG). Citizens can register grievances through the official portal at cmhelpline.dpg.goa.gov.in, the official mobile application, or by calling the toll-free helpline 1905, which is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and public holidays.

One of the key features of the Goa CM Helpline is its AI-enabled grievance management system. The 1905 helpline uses an AI-powered voice assistant that can interact with citizens in English, Hindi and Konkani. The official web portal and mobile application also provide an AI chatbot to assist users during grievance registration and to answer common queries. According to the Directorate of Public Grievances, the platform also uses AI-based grievance classification, multilingual processing and analytics to improve grievance management.

The grievance lifecycle follows four stages - Raise, Register, Process and Resolve. After a grievance is successfully registered, the system generates a unique Grievance ID, which can be used to track its status online.
