ICT is having a profound impact on the way Governments all over the world are providing services to their citizens. Electronic Governance is an important item on the Government agenda today. A number of successful e-Governance programmes and projects has been initiated and implemented in various States of India.

I am happy to note that Informatics, the e-Governance bulletin of National Informatics Centre, is doing a commendable job by providing a useful platform for sharing information about several e-Governance programmes, projects and activities and highlighting the innovative approaches being adopted in this domain.

My very best wishes to the Editorial Team of Informatics.
