Under the 'Smart Islamabad' project, all schools in the federal capital, including those in both rural and urban areas, will be centralised and provided with internet connectivity and other resources to enhance the quality of education.
"The Ministry of Education (MoE) is actively collaborating with the Ministry of Information Technology (MoIT) on this initiative," an official from the MoIT said and explained that the centralised education system would improve educational standards in the capital without requiring additional resources.
Under the initiative, the MoIT will soon introduce the 'One Patient, One Identity' system in the federal capital. This system will store a patient's complete medical record, making it accessible across all hospitals in the area, including basic health units.
"This will eliminate the need for patients to revisit the hospital where they initially received treatment. Instead, they can visit any hospital in the federal capital, where doctors can access their medical records using the identity issued under the 'One Patient, One Identity' system," the official added.
He further said that separate police facilitation centres would be established across the city to serve the public, with the capital police chief actively working on the project. "These centres will refer complaints to relevant police stations for resolution.
