technologies can be used to strengthen the
public's voice as a force to reshape the
democratic processes, and refocus the management,
structure, and oversight of government to better
serve the public interest. Source The National

to citizens. e-Government might involve
delivering services via the Internet, telephone,
community centers (self-service or facilitated by
others), wireless devices or other communications
systems. Source Roadmap for e-Government in the

    India, where 60 of the population live below the
    poverty line (earning less than US1 per day).
  • Each kiosk was initially funded by the local

e-GOVERNANCE IN INDIAINITIATIVES STATE LEVEL
Source World Bank
  • Online Delivery of Land Titles The Bhoomi
    Example
  • The Department of Revenue in Karnataka has
    computerized 20 million records of land ownership
    of 6.7 million farmers in the state.
  • Previously, farmers had to seek out the Village
    Accountant to get a copy of the Record of Rights,
    Tenancy and Crops (RTC)
  • For a fee of Rs.15, a printed copy of the RTC can
    be obtained online at computerized land record
    kiosks (Bhoomi centers).
  • The system generates various types of reports on
    land ownership by size, type of soil, crops,
    owner's sex, etc.,
  • Banks and other lending institutions could be
    provided electronic access to the database for
    processing requests for crop loans, and conduct
    some advance planning on the quantum of lending
    required.
  • High court, district and taluk courts could
    access the database for resolving legal disputes
    surrounding land.
  • The system could also lead to better
    administration of Land Reforms Act
