Manipur Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh launched four digital portals — RTI, e-Seba, Explore Manipur, and an AI Scheme Finder — to enhance transparency, service delivery, and citizen-centric governance across the state.
IMPHAL – Chief Minister of Manipur Yumnam Khemchand Singh, today launched four digital platforms at the Cabinet Hall of the Chief Minister's Secretariat. Developed by the Department of Information Technology, the platforms are aimed at improving governance and service delivery across the state.
The four portals — the Centralised RTI State Portal, e-Seba Manipur, Explore Manipur, and the AI-enabled Scheme Finder — reflect the government's commitment to leveraging digital technologies for transparency, efficiency, and citizen-centric governance.
The Centralised RTI State Portal will enable citizens to file and track Right to Information applications online. Developed in line with the Supreme Court's direction dated March 20, 2024, to operationalise online RTI systems, the portal is designed to strengthen transparency and accountability across all government departments. A total of 287 departments and administrative units have been integrated into the system, and 266 Public Information Officers have already been onboarded onto the platform.
e-Seba Manipur is a next-generation service delivery platform developed to provide seamless and secure access to government services. It builds upon an earlier e-services platform that had delivered 35 services across districts and recorded over 34 lakh transactions. Key services from the Revenue Department and Employment Exchange — including certificates such as domicile, income, SC, ST, and OBC, as well as employment-related services — have been integrated into the new platform. It will ensure both online and assisted access to services, with particular attention to citizens residing in remote areas.
Explore Manipur is a digital platform designed to help people discover and experience the state. It offers smart search functionality, interactive maps, and detailed information on tourism, religious sites, markets, transport, and government services. The platform is intended to support smart tourism and improve access to information for both residents and visitors alike.
The AI-enabled Scheme Finder is designed to help citizens easily identify government schemes relevant to their individual needs. The platform analyses user inputs and recommends suitable central and state government schemes accordingly. The initiative aligns with the broader vision of Digital India and AI for All, aiming to improve awareness of available support and ensure that eligible beneficiaries can readily access government assistance.
The launch programme was attended by Home Minister Konthoujam Govindas Singh, Chief Secretary Dr Puneet Kumar Goel, Additional Chief Secretary Anurag Bajpai, State Chief Information Commissioner K. Radhashyam Singh, Commissioner to the Chief Minister N. Ashok Kumar, Secretary IT Somorjit Salam, and other officials from the Department of Information Technology.
