He further said the department officials executing e-offices from anywhere. “A major advantage of digitisation is that approvals or observations from the officials for any work can be done at any time and files won’t remain pending even if the concerned official is on leave. Though this process we can save our time and that of our users,” the Commissioner, said.

According to the department logging IDs and passwords have been made on the E-office of all the MCG officials. The IT cell is also training the officers as per the requirement.
