By THE NEWSMAN OF INDIA.COM| In an era where senior civil servants are often perceived to be associated with privilege and comfort, IAS officer Pulkit Garg, District Magistrate of Chitrakoot, has chosen to send a different message—through action rather than words. Known for a lifestyle that reflects professional success, Garg surprised many by enrolling his young daughter, Siya, in a government-run Anganwadi centre.

This simple yet powerful decision reflects deep faith in public institutions. At a time when welfare schemes are frequently viewed with doubt, the DM’s personal choice has reinforced their credibility. Instead of relying solely on administrative authority, he placed trust in the same system meant for ordinary citizens.

By opting for a public childcare facility over private alternatives, Garg demonstrated that governance is not only about policies and files, but also about personal conviction. His gesture quietly bridged the gap between the administration and the people, showing that public services can match expectations when supported sincerely.

More than a symbolic act, the move has inspired parents and officials alike to reconsider their perceptions about government facilities. In Chitrakoot, this decision has become a reminder that real leadership is often expressed through everyday choices—choices that strengthen institutions and restore public confidence.
