– Agriculture Commissioner Suraj Mandhare
Mumbai, May 6: Several tools are available for using innovative technology in government work for managing information, time planning, monitoring tasks, and reporting. Using such tools will certainly enhance efficiency in official operations, said Agriculture Commissioner Suraj Mandhare.
As part of the skill development of administrative officers and staff under the "Tech Wari: Maharashtra Tech Learning Week," a lecture on “Effective Use of Technology” was delivered by Agriculture Commissioner Suraj Mandhare and Dr. Vikas Naik, Joint CEO of the Maharashtra State Innovation Society, at the Conference Hall, 6th Floor, Mantralaya. Resident Commissioner R. Vimala from Maharashtra Sadan, New Delhi, along with trainees, was present at the session.
Commissioner Mandhare stated that tools like Google Keep, Evernote, Microsoft OneNote, Google Drive, Dropbox, ClickUp, Microsoft To Do, Google Calendar, Google Sheets, and Telegram can help speed up work. Technology is something that brings everyone to the same level without any discrimination. It benefits everyone regardless of physical ability, color, caste, or religion.
He added that using tools like Microsoft OneNote can help resolve many governance-related challenges. Tablets with stylus pens are extremely useful in administrative tasks. The focus should be on smart work rather than hard work. While working for the government, one is also expected to be technologically proficient, he emphasized.
Dr. Vikas Naik, Joint CEO of the Maharashtra State Innovation Society, said that if technology is used properly, government functioning can be more effective and timely. Applications like "Any.do" can be used for task management and Excel can be useful for managing data at the field level.
While giving information about the ‘Maharashtra Civil Service’ website, Mr. Naik stated that citizens can ask questions related to any department on this platform and receive direct responses from officials.
He also provided information about the "Mahasampark" application, which helps in easily accessing information about officers in the Indian Administrative Service and public representatives. He emphasized that there is a need for problem-solving technologies in the administrative system, and technology provides powerful tools for that purpose.
Highlighting the importance of combining innovative initiatives with technology, he gave details of various schemes of the Maharashtra State Innovation Society.
