Under the project – ‘DDA Digital Services: Computerised Management System for Decision Support and Online Public Services (including Grievances Redressal) System (CMS)’ – the DDA will network its 22 departments and 60 field offices and undertake capacity building for its 5,000 officials to provide citizen services, the DDA’s vice-chairman Udai Pratap Singh said, at a meeting with Housing and Urban Affairs Minister Hardeep Singh Puri, according to the release.

The DDA would use social media to improve interaction with customers, promote digital payments and establish state-of-the-art record rooms, the statement said.
