IT interventions and several digital initiatives are bringing transparency in the system and streamlining the public service delivery system for the welfare of common masses. J&K has achieved several milestones with solid technical architecture at the service of citizens with speedy development as the new identity of J&K.
The prime objective of government is line to online and instead of travelling to Government offices, people just need to use digital mode for availing different government services. The Government aims to establish a system which enables people to access high-quality services anywhere, anytime, on any device.
Continuing its march on the path of providing E-governance to its citizens, J&K has been successful in providing nearly 444 services online including all the major services commonly availed by the people.
Government is working to usher the UT into an environment where its citizens would carry offices in their pockets and avail any services without having to physically visit any of the office.

Moreover 195 services had already been integrated with the feedback system out of these 411 online services and some 103 more services are going to be made RAS complaint shortly.
Synchronization with auto-appeal for the services of few departments has generated encouraging results with 99% applications disposed within the stipulated time frame as per the Public Services Guarantee Act (PSGA) which not only ensures timely delivery pof services but penalizes those officers/officials found failing in doing so.
The UT administration is soon going to integrate all its online services with the auto-appeal so that all the services are provided to its citizens as per the timelines specified in PSGA for these services for the benefit of one and all.
Government has directed the stakeholders to formulate short-term goals of 3-6 months and long-term vision statements to transform core ICT infrastructure, governance and services for ease of living, accessibility, innovation to transform J&K into digitally empowered society and knowledge economy.
It is worth to mention that Digi Dost' program launched by Govt is aimed at developing a strong network of digitally empowered young volunteers at District, Block and Panchayat level who can work as the brand ambassadors for Digital J&K and Digital India to achieve maximum mobilization and awareness on digital services.
'Digi Dost' volunteers assist in digital service delivery, data collection, training, spreading information regarding Digital India campaign and make the people aware about cyber hygiene and cybercrimes.
