Our mission of creating a civic muscle in our country's youth compliments eGov's scale at speed approach of transforming governance in all cities across India. We started discussions with the eGov team six months ago which quickly transpired into an action plan. The two teams designed a technology integration of Public Grievance Redressal (PGR) with the Solve Ninja WhatsApp chatbot which will be piloted in 3 cities of Punjab.""While we begin with a few cities in Punjab, we are committed to scale our partnership across Punjab and many other states. We are also excited by the prospects that this partnership opens up to create a nation-wide citizen inclusion and engagement movement," he further added.This partnership has been set up to build capacity and facilitate knowledge transfer and learning from experts in East and Southeast Asian countries on key development issues in urban India.K.R. Subraman, CEO, ACF, said, "ACF has been engaged with the urban space through its research and other programs, specifically through the lens of importing best practices, models and creating platforms for experts to engage with each other across borders. We are working with eGov to build inclusive and resilient cities. Our partnership is focused on identifying key factors that enable cities to develop into economic units that are liveable and sustainable. This work will be done through various activities such as fellowship programmes, research, workshops, dialogues and the building of a virtual East Asia hub within eGov.""The ultimate objective of the interchange is to promote granular and focused development-sector collaboration across India, China and South-East Asia, and to develop comprehensive regional perspectives and bodies of knowledge," he further added.This story is provided by Connect360 PR. will not be responsible in any way for the content of this article.
