  • Abstract:
  • E-governance is defined as “the application of ICT to transform the efficiency, effectiveness, transparency and accountability of exchange of information and transaction between government and employees, between government agencies, between government and citizens, between government and business.” E-governance in India has steadily evolved from computerization of Government Departments to initiatives that encapsulate the finer points of Governance, such as citizen centricity, service orientation and transparency. Lessons from previous e-Governance initiatives have played an important role in shaping the progressive e-Governance strategy of the country. Due cognizance has been taken of the notion that to speed up e-Governance implementation across the various arms of Government at National, State, and Local levels, a programme approach needs to be adopted, guided by common vision and strategy. This approach has the potential of enabling huge savings in costs through sharing of core and support infrastructure, enabling interoperability through standards, and of presenting a seamless view of Government to citizens. The future of e-governance is bright for India. There is a need that the governments at various levels-central, state and local should implement e-governance in their administration to the maximum capacity in order to provide the citizens efficient, effective and transparent access to public services that the citizens deserve.
