Another milestone
Geology and mining department will now ensure that the construction material is available to the customers on the approved rates of the government.
Any person after registering himself on the government portal can get construction material with the help of this web portal without any problem.
In order to access the geology and mining department web portal, both the vendors and customers have to register on the portal. The customers can then directly order the material like sand, bajri, nallah muck, stones, crushed bajri, etc from the portal. They can do cost comparison besides the items are available at approved rates, as was informed by the department.
The payment can be made securely online through the payment gateway. The collection of duties and taxes would also be done online without the scope for evasion of the same. An e-challan would thereafter be generated after authentication by the concerned DMO and sent both to vendor and customer. The end to end features like placing of order, follow-up and tracking can be done by the end user, as was given out on this occasion.
The Department also intends to integrate the system with weigh bridges at sites for accuracy and install PTZ cameras/Drone surveillance at vulnerable illegal mining points across all the districts in future for the better serving the people of J&K.
Those who were present on the occasion included Principal Secretary H&UDD, Secretary, Mining; Director General, Mining, representatives of J&K Bank and other concerned officers and officials of the department.
