App to provide services under single roof

Chandigarh, April 25

Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar today announced the launch of the mobile app “HelpMe” to bring various apps and portals providing services to the public during Covid under one roof. In a televised address, the CM said the app working on Android OS was available on Playstore.

“It will be available for download from Sunday. The app will enable the public to request for dry ration, cooked food, LPG cylinder, ambulance, doctor, movement pass and bank appointment as per need,” he said. The CM pointed out that it also enabled citizens to donate.

“It has OTP-based login and detects GPS location of the requester. The request for various services will directly go to the district officer concerned,” said Vijender Kumar, Principal Secretary, Skill Development and Industrial Training.

“Banks can fix appointments. Even learning resources for higher education have been provided for students in this app. It also provides farmers with an option to sell their crop by booking a gate pass,” said V Umashankar, Additional Principal Secretary to CM. —TNS
