Byatrayanpura CMC bytes a record

BANGALORE, DHNS:

Byatrayanapura City Municipal Council (CMC) has achieved the distinction of becoming the first municipality in the country to be computerised replete with a highly accurate Global Information System (GIS) to enable better delivery of services to its citizens.

Following computerisation programme, citizens can obtain copies of birth and death certificates, tax receipts and other relevant civic documents from their ward offices on demand, Byatrayanapura CMC President S Srinivas said here on Tuesday.

The computerisation process will also help in gathering accurate data on the properties in the CMC to augment tax resources. Digitised maps of all the 31 wards using GIS would be completed by March this year, he said. Under this project, GIS solutions would be linked to the property tax MIS (Management Information System) module for planning and administration applications.
As a spin-off, citizens can soon register their complaints on-line by logging on to the website www.byatrayanapura.com
