Patna : A new computer centre named "Finance Data Centre" has been established at the main Secretariat Building in Patna, Bihar. The main aim behind the setting up of the centre, managed by the staff of the C.S Cell of NIC, is to help build the necessary infrastructure for the computerization of the Budget preparation process in the State. The centre, set up with the active help of the State Finance Department is equipped with the latest in terms of software and hardware. All these resources were effectively utilized to integrate for the first time, the raw data processing power of an RDBMS, the page lay-out and publishing power of a DTP package and the preparation of pre-press film for the printing of the Budget document.
