Delhi Assembly set to hold first paperless session from August 4

(RAJ K RAJ /HT PHOTO) The assembly is set to inaugurate its e-Vidhan (paperless assembly) system along with a 500kW solar power plant at the complex on Sunday. The inauguration will be done by Union minister for law and justice Arjun Ram Meghwal. A special trial run of the e-Vidhan platform, part of the National e-Vidhan Application (NeVA) programme, will also be held during the event. The trial will allow MLAs to experience the new digital interface firsthand ahead of the upcoming session. 'Today, in the meeting of the legislative party held at the Delhi Secretariat, a detailed discussion was held with all MLAs to realise the resolution of 'Developed Delhi'. This meeting, held before the upcoming assembly session, was an important opportunity to brainstorm on our collective strategy, priorities, and issues of public interest. This session will add a new chapter to the history of the assembly, as it will be the first fully paperless e-Assembly session. This change reflects our government's commitment to technology-based transparency and efficiency. In this session, an important bill related to education will also be tabled for discussion, which will be a decisive step towards making Delhi's education system more robust and inclusive,' Gupta said in a post on X. Gupta said the Delhi government is undertaking major initiatives to make its governance system more accessible, efficient and transparent. The drive to digitise all government offices has significantly accelerated the pace of administrative work. Gupta said that she has transformed her own office into an e-Office to set a benchmark for other departments to follow. 'We are working in alignment with the vision of the central government and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This system ensures accountability and provides real-time updates on how long files are pending with any officer or department,' Gupta said. She said that the e-Office platform, developed by the National Informatics Centre (NIC), showed remarkable results in July. Out of the Delhi government's 199 departments, 119 are now fully operational on e-Office, up from 22% in June to nearly 60% now. During the same period, the number of digital files used by these departments exceeded 118,000, marking a growth of over 250% compared to the previous month (June). 'The e-Office system has not only significantly reduced paper consumption but has also made decision-making faster and more transparent. Government officials and staff in Delhi are now benefitting from digital file tracking, quicker approvals, and immediate implementation of decisions,' she said.

119 of 199 govt depts already digitised, to boost paperless governance: CM

New Delhi: Chief minister Rekha Gupta on Saturday said Delhi govt was digitising all its offices to accelerate the pace of administrative work. She stated that the e-Office platform has replaced traditional paper files with digital formats, making the workflow modern and efficient. Developed by the National Informatics Centre, Gupta said the e-Office platform showed remarkable results in July, with 119 of 199 departments of Delhi govt being fully operational on the platform, in comparison to just 43 in June. During the same period, the number of digital files used by these departments exceeded 1.18 lakh, marking a growth of over 250% compared to the previous month of June. The chief minister also noted that the e-Office system not only significantly reduced paper consumption but also made decision-making faster and more transparent.

It was again promoted in July 2022, but the govt decided to put it on hold following poor adoption by various departments. It was again pushed by the BJP govt this time, and all departments were asked to switch to the digital movement of files. Gupta said training was provided to officials and staff at all levels to implement digitalisation in govt offices. "When all central govt offices are functioning on this system, the national capital must also adopt the e-Office platform. We are working in alignment with the vision of the Centre and PM Narendra Modi. This system ensures accountability and provides real-time updates on how long files are pending with any officer or department," the chief minister said. Highlighting the broader impact, Gupta said digitalisation was not just a technological change, it was a blend of administrative efficiency, transparency and environmental conservation. "Our goal is to ensure that every government task is swift, accurate and citizen-centric, and the e-Office platform is a major step in this direction," she said. Gupta added that now the legislative assembly was also being made paperless, which was a decisive step towards making Delhi's administration fully digital.
