PESHAWAR: The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government on Wednesday directed deputy commissioners across the province to utilise its ‘mobile reporting app’ to coordinate flood relief activities.

In a letter, the Performance Management and Reforms Unit of the chief secretary’s office asked the DCs to use that app for “timely and accurate coordination among provincial government, line departments and district administration in time of natural emergencies.”

It said the app was also meant for the resolution of the people’s grievances, so its awareness should be created among people. Earlier, science and information technology minister Atif Khan, in a social media video message, said a mobile app had been prepared to address the people’s complaints and provide them with quick relief.
