As part of efforts to move towards digitisation in Haryana, Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar today launched two e-service projects including one to make the Industrial Training Department's office paperless.
These two schemes are: e-office system in Industrial Training Department to make the office paperless and Automation of Fair Price Shop of Food and Supplies Department to ensure the distribution of ration to the real beneficiaries under the Food Security Act.
On this occasion, the Chief Minister also gave online approval on two files concerning staff sanction for Industrial Training Institute (ITI), Rania, district Sirsa and ITI Farmana, district Rohtak.
Speaking on this occasion, he said that the 'Gita' was at the heart of the word 'Digital' (DI-GITA-L).
He added that the State Industrial Training Department had become the first department to make its office paperless.
The move is aimed at bringing transparency, efficiency and accountability in the functioning of the Department, he said.

After its success, the project would also be replicated in other departments, he added.
Describing the day as significant in the direction of Good Governance, he said that 'e-Governance Day' was observed in the State on December 25, 2014.
Since then, a number of e-projects have been launched for the welfare of the poor, which have shown fruitful results.
Now Departments are functioning at a fast pace in Haryana and the governance system is being praised everywhere in the State, he said.
About 14 lakh pensioners have been directly benefited as they now get their monthly Old Age Samman Allowance directly into their bank accounts, he said.
It was informed in the meeting that with the implementation of e-office system, the employees of the Department would not use manual noting sheets to put up various official works.
The e-office system would enable Government officials to move their files in electronic mode right from the first dealing hand to the competent authority, officials said here.
