State introduces e-Work 2.0 to streamline rural works, including MLA-LAD scheme
Jaipur: Under the
e-Work 2.0
module, launched by the state's
rural development
department, several departmental activities, including recommendations or proposals for development projects by MLAs in their respective assembly constituencies under the
MLA-LAD scheme
, are now done digitally or online.
This initiative aims to enhance transparency, enable real-time monitoring, reduce work completion time, streamline govt processes, and improve efficiency in project execution.
Some of these activities include cost estimation of development projects, digitally signed sanctioning/approval of work, and online measurement of work (DANG, MAGRA, and MEWAT area development programmes and MLA-LAD). Additionally, it involves online payment through a single nodal account (SNA), inspection and monitoring of development projects, preparation of work completion and utilisation certificates online, SSO integration, and geo-tagging of works.
"Under this module, MLAs can recommend development projects to be undertaken in their respective assembly constituencies through the e-Work mobile app. The financial and physical status of these projects can also be monitored through this app," said project director rural development and deputy secretary Omkareshwar Sharma.
While the e-Work 2.0 module was launched by chief minister Bhajan Lal Sharma on March 27, most of the features of this module were conceptualised by additional chief secretary (ACS) rural development department Sreya Guha.
The department has also suggested to the state govt that the e-Work module can be replicated in departments such as tribal area development (TAD), forest, local self-government, public works department (PWD), water resources (WRD), and Public Health Engineering Department (PHED).
