NEW DELHI, Aug 3:
Re-designed website of the President of India was launched today at the Rashtrapati Bhavan.
While historical perspectives from the earlier websites have been retained, the re-designed website has some new features, which include direct connectivity from the website to social networking media of the President i.e. Facebook and YouTube, according to a release issued by the Rashtrapati Bhavan.
These two features have been initiated after assumption of charge by President Pranab Mukherjee.
The new website also has a video gallery. Citizens can connect to the President directly by clicking the button ‘Write to the President’, which will take them directly to the helpline portal.
Moreover, visuals have been conceptualised and made user friendly.
Launching the website, President Secretary Omita Paul expressed hope that it would be a step forward to bring the President of India closer to people.
Ms Paul also said efforts would be made to ensure that the website is in line with the best global practices. (UNI)
