Cabinet approves approach and key
components of e-Kranti: NeGP 2.0
The Union Cabinet approved the approach and key components of the e-Kranti or National eGovernance Plan (NeGP) 2.0 on March 25, 2015. This programme will be implemented by the Department of Electronics and Information Technology under the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology. 21 E-Kranti is one of the components of the Digital India programme.
The aim of the programme is to deliver all government services electronically to citizens, at affordable costs, while ensuring efficiency and transparency. The first NeGP (launched in 2006) had revealed several implementation issues. The e-Kranti programme is being launched to improve delivery of government services such as e-education, ehealthcare, etc.
Some key objectives are to:
Redefine NeGP with outcome oriented eGovernance initiatives, Enhance portfolio of citizen centric services,
Ensure optimum usage of core Information and Communication Technology (ICT), and
Leverage emerging technologies. Some of e-Kranti‟s key principles include providing ICT infrastructure on demand, cloud by default, fast tracking approvals, National GeoSpatial Information System, etc. The programme management structure approved for Digital India would be used for monitoring the implementation of e-Kranti as well.
