 Findings:
e-Kranti aims to ensure a government wide transformation by delivering all
services electronically to the citizens through integrated and interoperable
systems via multiple modes while ensuring efficiency, transparency and
reliability of such services at affordable costs, he said during Question Hour.
In e-Kranti, 44 Mission Mode Projects (MMP) 13 central, 17 state and 14
integrated MMPs are being implemented. Under the 25 operational MMPs
222 services are being provided. More than 192 e-transactions have been
reported since January 1, 2016.Avg> 39 Cr. e-transactions in January, 2015.

Under e-Kranti, the government of India has made concerted effort to make
offline government services to be also delivered through online mode,
ensuring that all citizens would have access to them, thereby improving the
quality of basic governance on an unprecedented scale.

India over decades built the strengthen in IT sector and it is high time that the
Government of India utilizes it to deliver the services.In this regard the e-
Kranti is an welcome step.
 However , the major concern is the state of our education and dismal
literacy rate which hampers the adoption of technology by masses.
More so, IT is a sophisticated platform where many a time even the
literate ones unable to transact properly. That means, majority of
Indians does not have digital literacy , hence there is a social
resistance to adopt this services.

In the absence of digital literacy , many take the help of so called

Middle Man to get the job done. This in turn , hampers the whole idea
of e-governance, because one of its primary focus is self-service and
eliminate middle man . Instead, it gave rise to a different kind of middle
man altogether in India.

Frauds are rampant and innocents are getting caught in the trap.

Hence, it is high time , literacy and digital literacy should be separated.

 The good part is , digital literacy only demands few protocols to be followed
and once it is communicated and demonstrated properly , it may serve the
purpose.

Another revolutionizing idea is the localization of language, thus letting people

transact with their own language. This gives fillip to the e-Kranti altogether.

Thought , there may be an initial hesitance for adoption of technology , however

with time, this will vanish.

The next trouble is the Infrastructure part.Digital infrastructure is a costly affair

and requires huge investment.

The call cost of India may be then lowest, but the data charges are one of the
highest.Often one hears the consumer complain on awful data services.Network
should search the phone and connect , instead People are searching for networks
(sometime on the roof and sometime on the mountain)

Hence , e-Kranti to succeed , the digital infrastructure should be accessible and

affordable , else we will be left will high-end applications but no end-users .
Conclusion:
On the conclusion, though, digital infrastructure
is a competitive market and given the market
capitalization and presence of healthy
competition , right push and policies can
troubleshoot these problems , there by making e-
Kranti a grand success.
