The app facilitates easy access of the contact number, location, and e-mail address of every government office in the State
Browsing the web for the contact number or location of a government office while on the road can leave one frustrated.
The search engine may throw up a wrong or even non-existent number and the location of the office on the online map may not be accurate. This dilemma stands addressed to a great extent thanks to the “Ente Jilla” mobile app developed and rolled out by the National Informatics Centre (NIC) in August.
The app facilitates easy access of the contact number, location, and e-mail address of every government office in the State. One can choose the district, and the app seamlessly guides through various government offices department-wise. On selecting the office, one can make a call, locate it on the map, write a review or send an email, all from the same interface. The services available from each office is also listed alongside.
