The Andhra Pradesh Public Transport Department has ordered all 161 of its Drawing and Disbursing Officers to install QR code-based visitor feedback posters in prominent spots at their offices. This move lets the public share feedback on government services and employee work. An official statement released on Friday noted that the step aims to make government offices more open, accountable, and better at serving citizens.
