Taking a cue from Singapore, the company has developed the Bhubaneswar One application to enable citizens to learn everything about the city.

From locations of hotels, healthcare centers and government offices to getting online services provided to the citizens, the app would provide everything, the official added.

Bhubaneswar has become first in the country to provide such online services to the citizens, said a release from Chief Minister’s Office.

The app has been developed jointly by BSCL and National Informatics Centre Services Inc (NICSI).
