DC Yashpal Yadav said the website had been integrated with various government initiatives and would provide information regarding smooth contact tracing, vaccination centres, Covid test reports, home consultation and tiffin services, besides the basic guidance.

He said the app and the Website would serve the need of an integrated information platform for better results in the drive to contain the Covid menace. He also invited suggestions to further improve the website, and assured that these would be incorporated accordingly.

The Bot gets activated when ‘Hello’ is typed and sent to WhatsApp number 8901521150. “The aim is to provide all types of information to Covid-affected persons at any point of time,” said DC Naresh Narwal.
