The Governor of Arunachal Pradesh has endorsed the plan to evolve the RIWATCH platform into UWATCH, aiming to enhance regional monitoring capabilities.
The Governor of Arunachal Pradesh publicly backed the initiative to transform the existing RIWATCH platform into a new system named UWATCH. The announcement was made during a press briefing at the state headquarters, where the governor highlighted the potential benefits of the upgraded platform.
RIWATCH, a regional information and monitoring tool, has been used to track environmental, infrastructural, and security-related data across the state. The proposed transition to UWATCH is expected to integrate advanced analytics, real‑time data feeds, and a more user‑friendly interface, thereby improving decision‑making for local authorities.
The governor stated that the transformation will be carried out in phases, with pilot testing in select districts before a full rollout. Officials have indicated that the project will create technical roles and training opportunities for local IT professionals, aligning with the state’s broader digital development agenda.
