Recently, the grievance redressal of the city is also being routed through 1929 City Call Centre. Nityananda Biswal, a senior citizen from Saheed Nagar, who visited the ICCC, also known as Bhubaneswar Operations Centre, said ``we understood how the entire city operations are integrated and are being managed from the centre and how through Bhubaneswar.me the citizen services are being delivered, digitally.
