Haryana moving from e-governance to good governance: CM

Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Saturday said that the while using Information Technology is constantly working towards envisaging Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of transforming India through e-Governance thereby making the lives of the people of the State better by bringing various Good Governance reforms.

He said that in Good Governance reforms brought in by the State Government, such a systematic system has been developed under which people do not have to make frequent visits to headquarters in Chandigarh or the district offices to get their work done. They can take advantage of all the government schemes at the nearest Community Service Centre (CSC) in their village or online while sitting at their homes only.

Khattar said that the Parivar Pehchan Patra would be a strong document in moving towards the direction of good governance in the state, due to which it would be easy to fetch the benefits of the welfare Services automatically. With this robust system now under the Old Age Samman Allowance, the pension of the beneficiary will start automatically. Now elderly people need not to apply anywhere as the pension automatically starts when one attains the age of 60. In the villages of the state, the work of generating the property cards under the Swamitva Yojana has been started by abolishing the old system of Lal Dora. Under this scheme, so far 13 lakh 47 thousand 609 people have Swamitva cards in the state.

He said that Antyodaya Parivar Utthan Yojana has been started to bring the poorest of the poor into the mainstream. By strengthening the online system, the government started giving direct benefits to the beneficiaries under the DBT scheme. The government has created an online transfer policy and started giving jobs on the basis of merit to ensure complete transparency. These services were brought under the purview of the Right To Service Act to make the benefits of government services reach the public in a time bound manner. Now the accountability of the department and the officer has been fixed for not giving the benefit of the service on time. The Government started the Dial-112 scheme, due to which people are getting Police help in just 15 minutes. Now, for the convenience of hearing and speaking people with disabilities, sign language experts will sit in dial-112 through video call and the police will help them after listening to their problems.
