Telangana, the 29th state of India came in to existence from June 2nd but the state is yet to be uploaded on to the virtual space by the Central government. Most central government departments are yet to include the newly formed state in their list of states. For an instance, Form 49 A of the Income Tax department needed for obtaining Permanent Account Number (PAN) is yet to include ‘Telangana’ option on its drop-down menu.
Several other Central departments like AAdhar, Cooking gas suppliers, Indian Railways, UPSC, National Defence Academy and Naval Academy are yet to update their records with Telangana option. On the other side, various wings of ministry of corporate affairs and the passport disbursal system have already adopted the 29th state in their Virtual space records.
