To bring internet connectivity to every doorstep in a state where most areas still do not have electricity connections, top bureaucrats of the UP government met private companies on Friday.

In a bid to give an impetus to 4G broadband connectivity, chief secretary Jawed Usmani and other government officials saw presentations made by information technology companies Reliance Communications and Infotel for establishing Safe and Smart cities and promoting 4G connectivity in the state.

After seeing the presentations by the two companies, Usmani instructed officials from the departments of urban development, PWD and forest among others, to assess the need and utility of broadband networks in key state departments.

On Friday, Usmani also reviewed the status of implementation of Central schemes like Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA), Mid-Day Meal apart from the works done by departments of secondary and vocational education. Saying that officials must computerize all data pertaining to social welfare schemes in the state, the chief secretary also said distribution of free books under SSA must be done every year, latest by the month of July.
