New Delhi: The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has geared up to implement its e-Governance project in all its 35 departments.
“Soon many MCD offices will become paperless, common man’s crowd will thin out and people will avail MCD services at home,” an MCD official said.
The project aimed at abolishing ‘Inspector Raj’ and bringing transparency will be completed by September next year.
Standing Committee Chairman Vijendra Gupta said IT major Wipro has been engaged as consultant for the project.
Six major firms have applied for completing the project and work would allotted to them soon.
Once the project is completed revenue to MCD from wealth tax, licensing, and building departments will increase substantially.
Wealth Tax Department has been fully computerised and by December licensing department will also go online, Gupta said.
People can apply online for new licenses or for renewal sitting at home.
Development work will get momentum after the computerisation of the Engineering Department where e-tendering and e-payment would be facilitated.
People can also see status reports of their application online after the project is fully implemented, the Standing Committee Chairman said.
