Underlining the need for a better delivery system, Meghalaya Chief Minister Mukul Sangma today said a single window system would be put in place to ensure it.

"We have made a new approach to put in place a mechanism that is result oriented, flexible and people-centric. We have to make things simpler for the people in the delivery system," Sangma told a press conference after addressing a meeting of DCs and SPs of the state.

He said the state government has proposed a single window system in certain sectors like issue of birth certificates, ST certificates, caste and other related documents.

"The government would also set up an online system of application for these certificates," Sangma said.

Calling upon the officials to utilize the availability of technology, the chief minister also mooted the idea of implementing various government schemes in convergence mode.

"We need to integrate the efforts of various departments, so that instead of pursuing the programmes independently, there is a cooperation among the different departments," he said, adding this would ensure optimum benefit.
