The government of the Punjab (Pakistan) is going to be e-governed from the next year, as the EDO IT in every district has been appointed to update the major information daily, enabling the CM to monitor progress in each district promptly.
The Executive District Officers of IT, appointed recently for this purpose in all the districts of Punjab, will add all official information of their districts in the computer network centralized in Lahore. While it will be mandatory for every department’s EDO, including education, finance, health, agriculture to provide the data to their area EDO IT every morning so that the concerned ministers, officers and the chief minister get updated information about all districts.
This was stated by the chairman Task force on IT govt of Punjab Nadeem K Haq while briefing the members of Lahore Economic Journalist Association.

He said overseas Pakistanis funded the facility manned now by Punjab Police at Qurban line from where they guide any individual to locate any destination in Lahore.
