Imphal, October 22 2009:
Except for 20 details out of 58 departments of the Government of Manipur, details of all other departments are missing in the official web directory of the State Government.
Information provided for these departments are only nominal.
In this stage of information technology, many departments whose websites have been listed in the official web directory have not been updating their contents while websites of many other departments are still in the stage of construction.
The official website of the Police Department has not been updated after the press release of August 29, 2008 .
While the website of Taxation Department has been shut-down, the website of Agriculture Department says that it is under construction.
Nevertheless, it was found that the websites of Planning, Election and Environment and Ecology Wing have been providing updated information.
But websites of many other departments were found to have been opened as if under compulsion.
The departments whose websites could not be assessed but listed in the Government's official web directory include Works, DIPR, IFC, Power, Fire Service, Science and Technology, Rural Development, Sericulture and Technical Education.
