Pakistan Prime Minister Imran applauded the team behind the Pakistan Citizen Portal app that won second prize at Dubai's recently concluded World Government Summit.
The app made it to the top three out of 4,646 mobile apps from 87 countries.
It was declared to be the second best app in the 'Best Citizen Service Delivery Competition' at the summit, which was attended by prominent government and industry leaders from around the world, including Khan.
Indonesia's Qlue Smart City App won the top spot while the third position went to an app from the United States.

The Prime Minister tweeted about the portal's recognition at the prestigious summit, highlighting that it was the first time any Pakistan government-owned mobile app was this successful.
The Citizen Portal got 4.5 rating out of 5 from the public and stood at seventh highest number in Google search category, he tweeted.

The app was developed in a record time of 45 days and launched on October 28. It claims to have resolved 250,000 complaints out of 420,000 with a 55 per cent satisfactory feedback from the public.
Khan has made multiple visits to the Middle East in recent months, seeking help from brotherly countries in stabilising Pakistan's economy.
