Daily Current Affairs 26.10.2018: ‘Main Nahin Hum’ portal

‘Main Nahin Hum’ portal
Overview: 
The government has launched ‘Main Nahin Hum’ portal for IT professionals. 
About ‘Main Nahin Hum’ portal and its Importance:
  • The portal, which works on the theme ‘Self4Society’, will enable IT professionals and organisations to bring together their efforts towards social causes on one platform. The platform has been developed by MyGov.
  • The portal will also help the employees in identifying the volunteering opportunities for social causes and they can also collaborate with other employees on such projects.
  • In doing so, the portal is expected to help catalyse greater collaboration towards the service of the weaker sections of society, especially by leveraging the benefits of technology.
  • It is also expected to generate wider participation of interested people who are motivated to work for the benefit of society. 
What next:
Since India has already become the third largest in terms of the start-up, social start-ups should become an intrinsic part of the ecosystem. Some of areas which require participation are saving natural resources such as water, agriculture, climate change etc.
