The government will develop 100 apps to ensure easy access to public services and to information on social safety programmes, women’s safety, agriculture, health, education, old-age allowances and paying utilities over the internet through smartphones and tablet computers.

Officials said 1,000 ideas, 700 individual and 300 group, would be collected from ministries, directorates and departments and the apps would be developed under a Tk 8 crore Mobile Apps Development Project the ICT ministry launched in October.

Already over 150 ideas have been received from various departments of the cultural affairs and social welfare ministries through several workshops in Dhaka and more will be held, they said.

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Secretary Md Nazrul Islam Khan said, “The ICT ministry in collaboration with Multimedia Content and Communications Ltd will develop the apps.”

He said the developers would be some 2,000 university graduates of 64 districts who have knowledge on Java programming.

“We have planned to open our own apps store,” he said.

The project Director Abul Hasan said seven camps would be set up in the country’s seven divisions to involve the IT industries and companies.
