New Delhi, June 9 (KNN) Assuring the industry that ease of doing business is one of the top priorities of the Delhi Government, Deputy chief Minister of Delhi, Manish Sisodia pressed upon a need for the single window clearance and said the government is making all efforts to integrate all the departments via online platform.
The Delhi government is working towards encouraging use of m-governance and e-governance to eliminate corruption and red-tapism from the system, Sisodia said while addressing an interactive session on ‘Delhi 2020 – A Smart Place to Live, Work and Do Business’ organized by industry body FICCI.
Sisodia assured the industry that ease of doing business is one of the top priorities of the Delhi Government and soon Delhi would be one of the most progressive and modern cities of India.
Industry and the government needs to work in tandem, said Sisodia and invited industry to share their vision and suggestions with the Delhi Government to resolve the basic issues of the city such as providing water supply to irregular colonies, quality education, affordable and superior health care services, housing to slum dwellers besides enhancing women security, generating employment opportunities, reducing pollution and improving transportation.
Sisodia said that the government is trying to create a unified tax structure for the northern region to facilitate business. Uniform and reasonable tax rates along with minor enforcement and trust between the government and industry could result in boosting tax collection in the capital.

Responding to suggestions from FICCI Ladies Organization of creating a women industrial park and promoting women in unconventional sectors such as security guards and bus drivers, Sisodia said that these proposals were laudable and should be deliberated upon further.
