Corruption free governance

Jammu and Kashmir administration has taken slew of initiatives to revamp administration and to bring common people closer to the administration. Dozens of online services have been introduced for the common people to provide them corruption free response to their grievances.

Recently the Chief Secretary of Jammu and Kashmir reviewed the quantum of response to these services by the common people so that their scope is further enhanced on the ground.

He instructed for identification of officers/officials who keep the applications lingering for days unnecessarily returning the applications without adequate reasons at the last moment to avoid escalation for taking appropriate action against them. He also asked to take regular review of rejected and reverted applications by the concerned Administrative Secretaries. He called for proper use of data available under five verticals of CCTNS including data of Courts, FSL, Police Stations, Prisons and Prosecution for eradicating crime from J&K.

He enjoined upon the officers to finalize the applications for digital urban surveillance and digital DPRs. He maintained that both are very crucial for arresting the malpractices and should be rolled out immediately. He also laid stress on bringing the identified far-off villages on the 4G mobile connectivity by accelerating the process of installation of BSNL towers there before the end of this year. The Commissioner Secretary, IT informed the meeting that  the IVR based feedback along with the currently used SMS method under RAS would be made functional by 15th Oct. She further gave out that many more services and reform measures are in the pipeline that would greatly enrich the experience of citizens with respect to digital services.
