In a developing country like ours, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is fast progressing to become more agile and productive in delivering citizen-centric services. Digital India, an ambitious concept, articulated in the year 2014 is considered critical in shaping a new India. The ICT driven solutions form the fuel for the transformation of a society into a digitally empowered one. Our government has come a long way with the significant role and support rendered by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology.
NIC has been a major support for the Government’s e-governance efforts by setting up state-of-the-art ICT infrastructure and providing ICT enablement systems. Through successful use of Artificial Intelligence, Data Analytics, Machine Learning and Cloud Technology, the organization plays a vital role in reinventing the last mile delivery of citizen-centric services. From helping increase the visibility of government welfare schemes to supporting better decision-making, NIC has followed a nimble approach to attain a comprehensive picture of the problems and possible solutions. Through ICT solutions, it has enabled people to become more self-sufficient in resolving critical issues. Each of the NICians should be extremely proud for being a part of the various endeavors of the Government in the pursuit of its mission of creating a digitally empowered society.
As we begin the New Year that also marks the start of the third decade of the 21st century, let us renew our collective will to collaborate and excel in delivering the best of technology solutions for building an empowered India.
Wishing you a very Happy New Year and a splendid time ahead.
