Gurgaon: MCG has developed a management information system and mapping portal to improve monitoring and transparency in development works across the city. Officials said mapping of projects has already begun on the portal.A training session for assistant and junior engineers was held on Tuesday under the chairmanship of MCG commissioner Pradeep Dahiya. Engineers were briefed on the mapping process and directed to complete mapping of roads in their respective areas within a week in the first phase. They were also asked to seek assistance from the technical team if required.Corporation officials informed that sewerage, drainage and other development works will also be mapped in subsequent phases. The system is expected to help curb duplication of works, repeated entries or multiple allotments of the same project.The commissioner said, “Through this portal, MCG is taking significant steps towards making administrative functions more transparent and accountable by utilising technology. This will not only enable real-time monitoring of development works but will also help provide better facilities to citizens.”During the meeting, Dahiya also directed officials to make advance arrangements for the monsoon, including deployment of machinery and pumps to tackle waterlogging.
