From seven-day journey to one-hour service: Bajura's digital governance shift
Summary
Bajura residents in remote settlements can now receive district recommendations through ward offices, cutting a journey that once took up to a week to about an hour. The new online system is easing access to government services in roadless areas and reducing travel costs for citizens.
Key Points
- Bajura's District Administration Office has introduced an online service that routes district recommendations through local ward offices.
- Residents who previously travelled for days to Martadi for routine documents can now complete the process in about an hour.
- The system is especially helpful for remote wards in Himali Rural Municipality that still lack road access.
- Chief District Officer Muktiram Rijal says the goal is to make public services simpler, faster and more technology-friendly.
