As we all embark on our journey to deliver the best of our abilities in 2022, it is also time that we look back and reflect on how we made an impact in 2021. At NIC, our focus has always been towards delivering the best of citizen centric services, keeping in mind on how to bring in transformational change and bridge the digital divide. With solutions focusing on various areas such as agriculture, healthcare, education, transport, visa & immigration, finance and Judiciary to name a few, we are at the cusp of a digital transformation which is propelling technological innovations around us.
Despite the tough circumstances created by the pandemic, we were able to create moments and milestones that matter. In the year 2021, Over 2 lakh VC sessions were conducted, 1.25 crore Aadhaar based authentications were done daily, 224 Cr. Man days were facilitated through NREGASoft, 16 lakh cr. amount transacted through PFMS, 90 lakh CBSE certificates were added to blockchain and many more. NIC is also supporting Government officers in Working from Home with platforms and services like eOffice, Video Conferencing, Messaging, and VPN Services. Integration of digital payments & direct benefit transfer in many government schemes has helped direct transfer of benefits to people in need. We could witness large scale adoption of such systems during the pandemic making services cashless, paperless & contact less. NIC’s robust and scalable cloud infrastructure has supported many of the government platforms and services to function seamlessly during the COVID-19 period.
As we head into the start of a new year, I hope that we can all channelize our spirits and aspirations to establish a compelling vision to be agents of positive change, both for ourselves and our people.
Wishing you all and your dear ones a very Happy New Year, 2022.
