The Perspective Of E-Governance In India
Before we understand the perspective, we have to understand that that E-governance is not about ‘e’ but it’s about ‘governance’; it is not about ‘computers’ but it is about ‘citizens’; it is not about ‘translating’ processes but it is ‘transforming’ processes. We can understand this, then I can say that there is a bright future for e-governance in India. As we all know, India is a developing country and there is still more to achieve, and e-governance initiative is one just of that achievement that our government is constantly pushing and making it a successful venture.
There has been a lot of successful initiative that our has taken in these years, two of those being E-choupal and E-bhoomi. These initiatives were the first step towards making the government services digital. Other than these two initiatives, below mentioned examples are the other milestone that our government has achieved state-wise.
