Briefing reporters after the meeting, Cabinet Secretary Mohammad Shafiul Alam said the new app is like the popular app Viber and free of cost. Alam said Information and Communication Technology Division developed the app for 14 lakh government officials to reach the government services to the people’s doorsteps. All kinds of communication would be easier as mobile number of any specific official could be collected after going to “advanced search” option of the app, the cabinet secretary said. Besides, he said, all security systems have been incorporated in the app so that none can hinder the security of the intercommunication medium of the government officials easily. “As a result, it is expected that a revolutionary change would take place in intercommunication of the government officials,” Alam said.
