The selection comes a day after the ministry approved a proposal to put in place an effective service mechanism at all DAOs.
The selected districts, which already have basic infrastructure, will be connected with a network of offices and have facilities required to make them gender-friendly, cooperative and service seeker-oriented. Home Secretary Leela Mani Paudyal said they have collected suggestions on model DAOs at regional security meetings.
The government will allocate Rs 10 million for each of the five districts for e-governance, deployment of computer-literate staff and for the operation of model DAOs within this fiscal, informed Paudyal. Next year, the project will be extended to other districts, he said. “The staff will be trained to make administrative offices exemplary,” said Paudyal.
