DESCRIPTION
Everyday, we read reams about how India is emerging as a global frontrunner in the realm of Information Communication Technology (ICT). But one ICT-enabled revolution that is flowing quietly like an undercurrent, eclipsed by the IT revolution, is getting ignored in the bargain. This book unearths the undercurrent, the rapid growth in e-Governance projects in India, through which the government is not only facilitating online citizen services like bill and tax payment, delivery of government certificates, land registration, etc., but is also aiming to move towards a scenario, where citizens will actually be able to participate in day to day governance and policy formulation-which is the ultimate objective of e-Governance in every country.
