When one browses the official website of the J&K Government www.jammuandkashmir.nic.in a message is being flashed that the website is under construction and this under construction message is being flashed since last almost 3 years now.
Official websites of almost all districts in J&K carry outdated information while a few of them are completely defunct.
The website of district Kupwara -www.kupwara.nic.in-hasn't been updated for long. The landline telephone numbers available on the websites are not working , even the official number of DC office Kupwara is out of order and not a single mobile number of any district official is available on the website. The old defunct advertisement notice are still present on the website.
Rajouri District website - www.rajouri.nic.in : This district website has a column on PIO's and APIO's under J&K RTI Act 2009 but when one opens the link a message is being flashed under updation and one cannot access the list of these Public Information Officers (PIO's) and Assistant Public Information Officer (APIO's) who have been appointed to provide Information to people under State RTI Act 2009. The link related to list of Sarpanches and Panches cannot be opened. In an interesting case the information related to Hajj 2010 is still available there on the Rajouri district website and till date it has not been updated with Hajj 2012.
Pulwama District website: www.pulwama. nic.in. Many wrong information's related to district officials is there on the website. For example in the telephone directory column the officers who have been transferred from the district, their name continues to exist there. Nasir Ahmad Lone was Assistant Commissioner Revenue Pulwama one year back but his name still exists there. The tourist places of Kulgam and Shopian districts have been shown located in Pulwama district.
The J&K Cooperatives website www.jkcooperatives.org is totally defunct.
The General Administration Department (GAD) website carries email IDs of all the KAS and IAS Officers but according to sources most of the email IDs are not working.
"The entire state machinery is directed by IAS or KAS officers in the state apart from heads of various departments. It is sad that their email IDs, mentioned on the website, are not working," said a complainant Dr Nazir from Nagam, Budgam "If these email IDs would work properly, it could help in maintaining people-to-official contact."
According to officials, the concept of e-governance is aimed at ensuring transparency in government departments by making people-to-official contact easy, and also go for proactive disclosure of information under the Right to Information Act. |
