ICT Infrastructure in Government Sector

22Umang Narula
Chief Electoral Officer, Jammu & Kashmir

Unlike other states, in J&K we use electoral rolls, which are mostly in Urdu language, but we also have areas where the rolls are in Hindi. Of course, the general feature is also to have the rolls in English. So actually we have to prepare the rolls in three languages and while the numbers in J&K may not be so large we do have to manage a electoral data base of about 68 lacs citizens

We are at the tipping point in the IT landscape, consumerisation of IT is happening in a big way and there is shift from traditional model to the electronic service delivery model. We are moving towards cloud and more cloud based applications are coming up, but this is leading to the rise of a complex array of new threats

Secretary IT,
Government of Andhra Pradesh

The State Data Centres, the State Wide Area Networks, and the Common Service Centres are the essential pre-requisite of IT infrastructure. There is wide difference in the IT infrastructure that has come up in South India and that is in North India. The most prominent difference is due to the fact that the Southern states started building their IT infrastructure very early. For instance, we started the State Wide Area Network project in Andhra Pradesh in the year 2000.

Government of Haryana

Three important of pillars of IT infrastructure are the Data Centre, Connectivity systems, and the CSCs. Of these the CSCs are the most important as they serve as an important interface between the government departments and the citizens. At first some of the CSCs were finding it difficult to survive, but that will change in times to come as we are now engaged in developing a viable business model for the CSCs

There is a lot of promise that cloud brings in, especially in context of the government sector. Now we are witnessing considerable rise in demand for e-Governance services, and hence we need to use the cloud based model for service delivery, but this model should have good security system built into it.
