The National e-Governance Plan - NeGP is changing the way people access Public Services.
With this 'single-window' concept, one can access most public services closer to home
at an affordable cost. A common digital service delivery infrastructure is being created
in every State and Union Territory to ensure seamless and single-window delivery of
public services to the common man. Whether it`s about putting up an application for a
passport or tracing the pension cheque, or it`s about getting the name of a new company
registered or quick processing of land records, now citizen can get all information and
many transactions done at the touch of the button anytime, anywhere.
The contribution of UT administration and PU towards e-governance will also be presented
in the Seminar.
