The announcement was shared by NIC, which plays a crucial role in driving the country’s e-governance initiatives and digital infrastructure. As Director General, Ramana will now lead one of the most important technology arms of the Government of India, responsible for developing and managing digital platforms that power public services.

His appointment comes at a time when digital transformation is at the core of governance, with increasing focus on citizen-centric services, data security, and scalable digital infrastructure.
