Dear Comrades,
Citizens Can Now Connect Directly to the President
The
re-designed website of the President of India was launched at
Rashtrapati Bhavan today. While the historical perspectives from the
earlier websites have been retained, the re-designed website has some
new features, which include direct connectivity from the website to
social networking media of the President i.e. Facebook and You-Tube.
These two features have been initiated after assumption of charge by the
President Pranab Mukherjee. The new website also has a Video Gallery.
Citizens can connect to the President directly by clicking the button
‘Write to the President’, which will take them directly to the helpline
portal. Moreover, visuals have been conceptualized and made user
friendly.
Launching the website, Secretary to the President, Ms. Omita Paul expressed the hope that it would be a step forward to bring the President of India closer to the people. She also said that efforts would be made to ensure that the website is in line with the best global practices.
