The Punjab Information Technology Board chairman gave a detailed briefing regarding websites of various departments for the promotion of e-government in the province.
Addressing the meeting, Chief Minister Shabaz Sharif said that the government was undertaking a comprehensive programme for the elimination of poverty and unemployment from the province.

The chief minister said that e-government was the need of the hour for a prompt solution of people’s problems and a comprehensive strategy had been adopted for this purpose.
He said the Punjab Police website should be developed along such lines that it should be helpful in redressing the grievances of the common man, monitoring efficiency of police stations and bringing about a positive change in police culture. He directed that a comprehensive plan be evolved for the website in consultation with the law minister, the law secretary and the inspector general of police and presented in the next cabinet meeting.
