This mobile app promises convenience and accessibility, enabling MPs to propose, track, and monitor projects seamlessly. The real-time access provided by the application facilitates swift decision-making, allowing MPs to respond promptly to emerging needs or challenges. The application is designed to enhance communication between MPs and relevant authorities, fostering a more efficient exchange of information.

Key benefits of the MPLADS e-SAKSHI Mobile App are Convenience and Accessibility, Real-time Updates, Budget Management, Efficient Communication, Enhanced Transparency.

Under the revised guidelines, the entire process of recommendation will operate through both the web portal and the mobile application. This innovative technological solution is poised to elevate transparency, accessibility, and efficiency in the execution of the MPLADS scheme.
