JAMMU: In a great recognition of its efforts at making the public services delivery easy and accessible to the people, Ramban district administration will be bestowed with a national award for e-Governance for its mobile application e-Suvidha.

The Silver Award, it may be mentioned, carries a certificate and a trophy for the project and a cash Award of Rs. 3 lakh, besides certificates for each team member, associated with the project.
“The trophy and certificates will be conferred upon the team of officials during the 25th National Conference on e-Governance (NCeG) scheduled to be held on 25th-26th November, 2022 at Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University (SMVDU) Campus, Kakryal, Jammu,” informed Alam.
