Enabling Citizen Access, Updates & Assistance Through WhatsApp
Citizens interacting with SRA Brihanmumbai often faced challenges such as:
- Multiple visits for information and follow-ups - Limited visibility on application status - Dependency on office hours for updates - Repetitive manual inquiries handled by officials
This resulted in:
- Increased footfall for routine information - High operational load on staff - Delays in information dissemination - Citizen inconvenience
A scalable and citizen friendly digital communication channel was required.
Accucia implemented a WhatsApp based citizen information and engagement system, combining responsive automation with controlled human support, aligned with government communication standards.
- Citizens access SRA information directly on WhatsApp - No app downloads or registrations required - Guided conversational interaction
- Details of active and upcoming SRA schemes - Eligibility criteria and benefits explained clearly - Accurate, standardized information delivery
- Step-by-step guidance for scheme applications - Required documents and procedural steps explained - Reduced confusion and repeat inquiries
- Citizens receive updates related to their application status - Reduces the need for repeated follow-ups - Improves transparency and clarity in communication
- Authority can send broadcast messages to citizens - Updates on schemes, announcements, notices, and information - Ensures timely communication at scale - Eliminates manual individual messaging
- Understands citizen queries using AI-based intent detection - Provides relevant responses dynamically - Available 24×7 without manual intervention
- Seamless handover to a live agent when human support is needed - Enables resolution of specific or complex citizen queries - Balances automation with controlled human interaction
