Union Communications and IT Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad on Saturday inaugurated townhall to mark the two year of citizen engagement portal MyGov.in.

Town Hall as a concept is commonly used in the West among politicians as well as CEOs to interact with people directly.

Speaking on the occasion, Prasad said MyGov has 35.2 lakh registered members.

The minister said achievements of ordinary people of the country must be given positive space in the MyGov platform.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address the function in evening.

The portal was launched by the Prime Minister in July 2014 to provide opportunity to the people to participate in multiple-theme based discussions and share their thoughts.
