The Meghalaya government on Monday launched a mobile app called Smart Shillong Mobile App, which will act as a one-stop shop facilitating citizens in getting information about different government and non-governmental departments. The app was launched by Hamletson Dohling, minister-in-charge, urban affairs and information technology and communications. Extra effort needed to take the state forward in the field of information technology, he added. The minister also hoped that the mobile app would not only empower the citizens, but also bring about transparency and accountability in the functioning of government departments.
