People can easily learn about development works being done anywhere in Jammu & Kashmir through Jan Bhagidari online platform, he informed.

 ‘Digital governance ensures fair governance. We must do away with the necessity to visit government offices altogether with digital services. Digital services are truly transparent and nondiscriminatory in nature, besides free from corruption’, he continued.

The Chief Secretary said that under the Public Service Guarantee Act, officers failing to provide services in stipulated time would be penalised. The Deputy Commissioners were also asked to spread awareness about the Act in this regard.

He informed that the Aapki Zameen Aapki Nigrani Land Record Information System is the most visited digital service of the UT government. He also called upon the public for linking mobile numbers with their land records for getting prompt updates regarding their land.

He directed Revenue Department to ensure effective digital on-boarding of all their services. Ensure that the people’s rights are protected through digital services, he remarked and urged all to encourage others to acquaint themselves about more than two hundred online services being provided by the government.
