The Tamil Nadu government plans to launch an app called "Vettri Tamil Nadu Super App" to provide citizens with direct access to 500 government services through their mobile phones, reducing the need for frequent visits to physical offices, announced R. Kumar, the Minister for Artificial Intelligence, Information Technology and Digital Services.
The app will enable users to obtain birth certificates, family cards (ration cards), and renew driver's licenses, among other services, at an estimated cost of ₹5 crore. Additionally, a web portal named "Vetri Tamil Nadu Web Portal" will be established to allow the public to share their feedback on government schemes, express views, and provide feedback on public services.
To further the objectives of the Tamil Nadu Artificial Intelligence Mission, an Artificial Intelligence Advisory Council composed of distinguished academics and industry leaders will be set up to offer expert advice. The government will also implement the second phase of the "Tamil Nadu Cultural Digital Repository," documenting 500 cultural sites and events across several districts, estimated to cost ₹60 lakh.
