Intervention  App-based monitoring and education of chronic kidney disease patients  An App based monitoring system is used in addition to standard care in the intervention group This app is mainly based on periodic inputs of data from both the patient as well as the healthcare provider (treating physician or nephrologist). Separate channel for input of data through telephone interviews by the healthcare provider has been created to include illiterate and less technologically enabled patients. Health data relating to symptoms of CKD will be entered through the app on a weekly basis.Laboratory data will be entered on a monthly basis.This Study will be conducted for a duration of six months. Voluntary surveys will be taken at beginning and end of the study period as part of “Assessment of health-related quality of life and its determinants in patients with chronic kidney disease.” Dietary advise and disease information tailored to a specific patient as deemed by the health care provider is provided in the form of text and video supplements. 
Comparator Agent  Standard of care therapy  Patients in the control arm get standard of care therapy according to established therapeutic guidline by the treating physician or nephrologist on OPD basis.Laboratory data will be entered on a monthly basis.This Study will be conducted for a duration of six months.Voluntary surveys will be taken at beginning and end of the study period as part of “Assessment of health-related quality of life and its determinants in patients with chronic kidney disease.”
