Manipur e-Budget launched

Imphal: Manipur government on Friday launched the ‘Manipur e-Budget’ application developed by a team of NIC Manipur.

The ‘e-Budget’ application will be available on https://ebudgetmanipur.mn.gov.in.

In the Vote-on-account Budget in March the state government had introduced ‘e-Budget’ in the state Legislative Assembly whereby printing of physical budget documents were brought down to a minimum. The budget documents were also made available in the state government website.

Now, to make the budget documents more accessible, the ‘Manipur e-Budget’ application has been launched. This will make the state Budget documents more easily accessible to the legislators, officials and the general public. From this year, printing of bulky budget documents has been done away with, which will result in massive time, cost and manpower savings, a press release by the state finance department said.

As on date, the budget documents available on the application are those placed in the Vote-on-account Budget in March. The Budget documents to be placed in the upcoming Assembly on July 25 will be made available after the budget speech is placed in the Assembly, it added.
