| LG launches Mobile App 'Satark Nagrik', Vigilance Officers Portal | | |  Early Times Report
JAMMU, Jan 7: Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Thursday launched Mobile Application 'Satark Nagrik' and Departmental Vigilance Officers Portal of J&K Anti Corruption Bureau, here at the Civil Secretariat.
Speaking on the occasion, the Lt Governor observed that the UT Government is taking comprehensive measures for ensuring transparent, accountable, and responsive governance.
Taking a yet another step in this direction, the mobile application launched today (Thursday) has been developed with a purpose to facilitate seamless flow of information about corruption and enable citizens to submit their grievances with ease and mobility.
Any citizen having an android-based device can download the application from play store. A unique ID number will be allotted at the time of registration of grievance which later can be used to track the status of grievance.
The Lt Governor remarked that the most effective antidote to corruption is an active, involved, and empowered citizenry.
"Each one of us must set new benchmark by adopting zero tolerance for corrupt practices. It must be understood that all the malpractices, nepotism and other such practices, be it governmental or other organisational, hurt the common citizen and the governance. Therefore, we must all join hands and pledge to root it out of the system," the Lt Governor observed.
Terming effective use of Information Technology and dissemination of information to all stakeholders through web portals/mobile applications as a key player in curbing malpractices, the Lt Governor said such interventions will help us create efficient, transparent and accountable systems with no scope for arbitrariness and discretion while enabling better quality and efficient delivery of services.
The Departmental Vigilance Officers (DVO) Portal has been designed to enable an online communication channel with the DVOs of various departments. In certain cases, the complaints are related to ongoing works, current recruitments, and payments yet to be made against contracts etc.
