Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has assigned the Ministry of Information Technology and relevant departments the task of making offices of the Federal Government paperless.
In a statement, he said no delay in the implementation of eoffice in the Federal Government offices is acceptable. Sharif instructed that the work on all office files should be done through the eoffice within a month. He said he would not see any file other than the eoffice.
The Prime Minister said enforcement of eoffice is amongst the top priorities of the government to ensure transparency and improvement in the system. He said officers should send files to all government offices through eoffice.
On the directions of Shehbaz Sharif, an eoffice training of the Prime Minister’s office staff was completed last week. Besides, the Prime Minister personally received files through the eoffice last week. Shehbaz Sharif said the eoffice is a significant step for the promotion of digitization and improvement of governance in Pakistan.
He also sought a progress report on the implementation of the eoffice in the next two weeks.
