The Jammu and Kashmir government has launched a website of its Social Welfare Department to enable the beneficiaries of various Centrally-sponsored and state government schemes in the state to get all the information through a click of the mouse.

Minister for Social Welfare Sakina Itoo launched the official website, jksocialwelfare.nic.in, here yesterday.

It is extremely important to post all the information on the website so that people do not have to visit the offices for gathering information about the schemes of the government, she said.

Itoo asked all the Heads of Departments of various wings of Social Welfare Department to provide latest data and details of the schemes under execution and the names of beneficiaries registered with the department to NIC authorities so that the website would be regularly updated.
