E-governance needs to be given more importance and the first step towards its implementation is e-office, C Viswanath, Secretary, Department of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances (DARPG) said at a workshop on e-office.
The e-office means computerisation of government work through digitisation of files and other such initiatives.
Mindset needs to be changed to switch over from old system to the new, an official release said quoting Viswanath.
Asserting that e-office is a safe, secure and easily accessible store system, he said a cut off date need to be defined for the implementation of e-office.
The workshop was organised in the light of the fact that the e-office is an important tool of e-governance for bringing efficiency and quality in public service delivery.
