Chief Secretary Basant Pratap Singh has said that the MyGov portal has provided a strong and better medium to communicate with the common man. This has helped in preparing schemes according to the feelings and requirements of the target group. The portal is a strong, simple and exoteric medium to exchange views between the government and common man.
Besides, MyGov also exhibits the level of reach of government’s efforts, what are their effects and what is needed to bring reforms and new provisions in various schemes and programmes. Singh was addressing the programme held on the occasion of completion of one year of MyGov at Mantralaya on Thursday. Participants of various competitions organized under the MyGov and for productive imaginations were also awarded on this occasion.
During the programme, the participant Karishma Suman while sharing her experience in connection to the portal stated that this platform has provided an opportunity to intimate government with feelings and thoughts towards the government schemes and programmes instead of keeping it concealed in diary or heart. It was informed on the occasion that the MyGov portal provides an important opportunity to connect community and government through suggestions and views.
This helps in establishing mutual communication through discussions, public opinion, blog and chatting.
