For the first time, the State Budget of Haryana was recently released on a Compact Disc.
The Web-enabled CD contains the complete Annual Budget for 2000-2001 and Haryana Economic Survey data for 1999-2000.
NIC Haryana State Unit has been successfully computerizing the Annual Budget of Haryana Government since 1993 using bilingual GIST Technology. It went a step further this year by bringing out the entire budget on the CD so that interested users may conveniently use it. The CD was released by the State Finance Minister Sh. Sampat Lal at a special function. After inauguration, the CD was presented to the Chief Minister of the State. The efforts put in by NIC Haryana State Unit in completing the mission in a record time were highly appreciated the State Authorities.
