Dr Mehta also impressed upon the officers to evaluate the requests of applicants as per laid down norms for efficient use of time and resources. He enjoined upon them to give hearing to all the visitors who are provided online passes and devise a proper mechanism regarding the same. He told them to look for places inside Secretariats where these visitors would be heard comfortably by one officer or other. He also advised them to look into making virtual visits possible so as to save time and energy.

It would give insights about frequent visitors and the offices visited frequently and the time spent by the visitor inside the premises.
The visitors can register on the portal jandksecret-ariat.swagatam.gov.in for registration and on approval can fetch their visitor passes from the portal or through email. The officers can reschedule, reject or forward the request to the other concerned officer for better outcome of the visit, as was informed during the launch.
