NEW SOFTWARE TO KEEP TRACK OF YOUR FILE, LETTER AT GOVT OFFICES
Dharmendra Jore, Mumbai
Hindustan Times (Mumbai edition)
The state Information Technology department is working overtime to provide relief to those whose files and grievance letters have been gathering dust at government offices because of red tape.
The department is fine-tuning the 12-year-old software that currently tracks movement of files in Mantralaya and other government departments across the state.
In the new system, any person, who has a mobile phone or Internet ID, will be given location of his letter or file through SMS or e-mail alerts.
The new system is essential because the old pending file tracking software -- the document journey management system -- does not help in fixing responsibility on the officers concerned.
"The various departments in Mantralaya receive around 15,000 applications or files every day. Most of them are carried manually, while others are moved through government's online system," said a senior officer, requesting anonymity because of lack of authorisation to speak with the media.
