Recently Chief Secretary, chaired a high level meeting to explore the potential of Community Service Centres (CSCs) in providing seamless Government-to-Citizen (G2C) and Government-to-Business (G2B) services across Jammu & Kashmir.
The meeting focused on integrating a wider range of government services with the CSC platform to ensure accessibility for the people, particularly in remote areas.
Those who attended the meeting included Principal Secretary, APD; Principal Secretary, Finance; Commissioner Secretary, IT; CEO, JaKeGA; MD, JPDCL; Chairman, JKBOCWW; MD, SIDCO/SICOP besides other concerned officers while the Deputy Commissioners participated online.
Observing the extensive scope of online services and their affordability, the Chief Secretary emphasized the need to onboard services from key departments including Revenue, Housing & Urban Development (H&UDD), Agriculture, Rural Development (RDD), Labour & Employment, Power Development (PDD), Jal Shakti, Industries & Commerce, and the Building and Other Construction Workers Welfare Board (BOCWWB). This integration, he observed, would not only enhance the service delivery but also boost the earnings of CSC operators.
He underscored the significance of the ‘Digidost’ feature of CSCs, allowing the citizens to avail government services from their homes at regulated rates. He directed the Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) to enhance the capacity of CSC operators, ensuring they efficiently serve both the citizens and the businesses.
