PAKYONG, (IPR): Agawane Rohan Ramesh, District Collector Pakyong, in the presence of Sangay Gyatso Bhutia, ADC Pakyong; Thendup Lepcha, SDM (H.Q) and Sandesh Subba, SDM Pakyong, launched the ‘Sikkim GO’ portal at the District Administrative Centre, Pakyong today.

A total of seven e-services for Scheduled Tribe Certificates, Scheduled Caste Certificates, Other Backward Class Certificates, Primitive Tribe Certificates, Income Certificates, Employment Cards and Firm Registration have been made accessible starting today.

During the meeting, the DC Pakyong enquired about the functionalities of the website and urged the public to avail themselves of the services that have been made available for their comfort and convenience and participate in bringing about a digital revolution in the State.

Additionally, the programme also aims to introduce payment services through online transaction methods like Gpay, UPI and other electronic methods. Hence, it enables the applicants to avoid the hassle of visiting banks for payments and offices for submitting documents.

It may be mentioned that citizens who are unable to undergo the process themselves can also visit the DAC with their documents and get the application filled from the helpdesk in single window.

The aforementioned facilities under the Sikkim GO Portal, which has been developed by the Department of Information and Technology, can be availed of by the public via https:sso.sikkim.gov.in/account/login
