In consonance with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of a ‘digital India’, the Delhi Urban Shelter Improvement Board (DUISB) has completely switched over to being an e-office.
“This will help increase transparency in decision-making and bring-in citizen participation as part of the inclusive governance in the country. To ensure time-bound implementation of e-office Ashish Joshi, member finance, has been designated as chief digitalisation officer,” said DUSIB CEO Amar Nath. “By digitalising its office, the Delhi government’s DUSIB might be the first public organisation to have completely switched over to being an e-office,” said Nath.
Nath said that the e-office involves creation of an online version of files, which are signed with digital signature and moved to next officer online itself. “This ensures that senior officers know the status of the file pending with each employee. It will of great advantage to DUSIB as its offices are located in various parts of Delhi,” he said.
