Use of ICT in the process of Governance has become a global phenomenon and the Government of India has rightly accorded high priority to the Communications and Information Technology sector. There is a constant need for concerted efforts to create awareness about the initiatives of the Government to strategically deploy technology with a view to benefit common man. India is well on its way to emerge as a global ICT superpower and organizations like NIC have been contributing immensely in this direction. It is hoped that the good work being done now gets the acclaim it deserves and brings the e-government initiatives to the forefront.

I am confident that endeavours like Informatics shall continue to be useful in disseminating information and create the much-needed awareness. I congratulate the National Informatics Centre for their effort and wish them continued success to all their endeavours in future.
