Revamped PMO website now has 'write to PM' option

This option provides people an opportunity to write to the prime minister directly

To increase interaction with the public at large, the Prime Minister's Office has revamped its website with a whole new interface including an option to send a letter directly to the prime minister.

It also has a section 'Our Government' that has nine sub-sections � The President of India, Lok Sabha, Rajya Sabha, The Cabinet Secretariat, Press information Bureau, Open Government Data, National portal of INDIA, GOI Web Directory and MyGov. These sub-sections are, in fact, links of respective websites. The President of India, for instance, opens the website of the president.

The PMO handle on twitter also tweeted about the development:The highlight here is of course the option that provides people an opportunity to write to the prime minister directly now, a move timed right around the one year completion of the Modi government in power. For this feature though, one has to register himself/herself  on the website first.

The Modi government has been facing severe criticism for giving only a few interviews in the media and not being open for public queries. Embedding the option of 'write to PM' might be a step in a direction to put faith in people about the government's transparency.
