An important step of the provincial government is to provide convenience to flood victims. Launch of a special app for online payment of compensation for damages to the victims. Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur officially launched the digital payment system. The app, called “Digital Disaster Compensation Management”, has been developed by the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa IT Board. This system has been linked to the provincial government’s central service delivery app Dastak.
Through the app, compensation for damaged properties will be paid directly and online to the flood victims. Through this online system, the victims will be able to claim compensation by uploading the details of their property damage themselves. This app consists of a completely transparent and automated mechanism, which will make it possible to provide compensation to the victims in a timely and transparent manner. Briefing
Due to the facility of geo-tagging, the provision of wrong information or a claim will not be possible. Verification of damages and compensation will also be done automatically through the app. This is a completely paperless and cashless system under which compensation will be paid online. Complete details of damages and compensation payments will be available on the dashboard for the Chief Minister and Chief Secretary, and other concerned authorities, briefing
