Inaugurating the workshop, SDM Vishva Mohan Dev Chauhan said enrolment for most government schemes had been digitised, and digital payment and online banking systems were also in place.
Citizens needed to be educated regarding the proper use of these applications, besides being cognisant of the increasing instances of cyber fraud, he added.
The SDM said while digitisation of government schemes had made work faster, transparent and paperless, it was pertinent for people to know how to use these platforms to avoid middlemen, who might defraud them.
