PIB launches mobile version of website to help cellphone users

"The URL of the mobile website is pib.gov.in/mobile. Mobile users who want the full functionality and display of the regular website can access it through the URL pib.gov.in," a PIB official said.

The new site has been customised to display latest press releases on the home screen and offers links to other matters on the website, he said.

To make the website accessible to places where internet connectivity is poor, the site does not display the 'heavy' content such as photographs and videos on the homepage.

At present, the mobile version displays only English content. In due course, Hindi and Urdu content of the main website will also be available on the mobile version, he said.
