Respected Madam, Thanks so much for your response. Yes, these are all pertinent issues that you raise. Thanks for pointing me to the mobile apps evaluation as well. While the mobile application is definitely one aspect, I believe that there are other points in which the services don't do well. I was hoping to get a deeper understanding of that. Would you be willing to speak to me about this over the phone or by meeting in person (if you do live in Bangalore)? I will be indebted and grateful.
Again, appreciate your email Regards, Vaishnav On Thu, May 18, 2017 at 12:54 AM, Vaishnavi Jayakumar (Inclusive India) via AI <ai@accessindia.inclusivehabitat.in> wrote: > Have you seen the CIS work on mobile apps?
