We can track where our Prime Minister and Exrternal Affairs Minister had toured in his/her tenure. A mini cartoon of our PM and EAM's face is an added joy.

Its an app with many useful features, with an excellent useful interface. Only 10-50 people have installed the app till now. How it will react once traffic increases is a wait and watch.
