Government of Haryana has been emphasizing that efficient and timely delivery of services to citizens is a corner stone of good Governance. Every citizen has a right to claim delivery of services from the Government in a prompt, efficient and time bound manner.

The state Government, has decided to implement a scheme for provision of 36  identified services to the citizens in a time bound manner, in the first instance.

The notification was issued by the Administrative Reforms department vide No. 7/8/2011-3AR dated on 07th June, 2011 to all government functionaries across the state.

The NIC-Haryana State Centre was assigned the responsibility of development and establishment of a workflow based effective monitoring mechanism (MIS) in the state for effective delivery of services to the citizen through electronics mode.  The Yamunanagar district was chosen for pilot implementation of Workflow MIS and thereafter, its roll-out across the state of Haryana.

The web portal www.jansahayak.gov.in  was designed, developed and hosted at Haryana State Data Center. The portal facilitate filling of application forms on the web and generation of computer generated complete file, along with checklists of documents, necessary fee and instructions. Downloadable e-forms along with checklists, procedures, instructions,  workflow and fee structure for each of 36 services have also been made available on this portal.  

With the implementation of www.jansahayak.gov.in  for various services, the government efficiency is significantly improved as Applications are collected at e-DISHA centre, target date and computer generated number is provided in the receipt.

The portal facilitates the citizen to get status of application that he/she has submitted to the issuing authority, using his mobile number.

Now the citizens need not to go to the office of that service delivery authority to know status of application.  

Jansahayak is fully integrated with other individual systems (like Vahan, Sarathi, Certificates Issuance, HARIS, HALRIS etc.) as it imports data from various existing services through web services, on daily basis.
