From this center, the rural populace easily get life and livelihood and necessary services in the familiar environment of their home. On November 11, 2010, from the Prime Minister's Office of the Prime Minister and the UN Development Program (UNDP) Administrator and former Prime Minister of New Zealand Misshellen Clark Bhola district's Char Kakrimukuri union, video conference from all the Union Information and Service Centers (UISC)Interact one at once. About 40 lakh people are getting information and services from these centers. Through the UISC, getting a quick and low cost government and non-government care has brought about a very positive change in the lives of the local people.
UISC started its journey in front of the 'People at the Doorsteps' program. With the establishment of the UISC, it is possible to create a free flow of information in every state of the society and the state system, where people are not going to go door to door, but they are reaching the service. Free flow of information is one of the prerequisites for empowering the public.The establishment of Information and Service Centers in the 4,501 Tribune Council of the country has facilitated access to information and services at the earliest, including participation in the free flow of information to the rural people.

Upon raising a UISC on the basis of local demand, there may be more or less than that. The unions and service centers have been established based on the PPPP model (public-private-PPSpartnership). There are two local entrepreneurs in each UIS, one male and one woman. UISC operates in the same way.In some centers a woman is working as a male entrepreneur as well as another woman and male is working as 'Alternative Adviser.' The merchants are not UISC's salaried workers, income of every UISC is the income of the entrepreneur. UISC is also an entrepreneur and an entrepreneur.
