Digital India and Governance Reform

Subject: Polity

Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth

An umbrella initiative launched to transform India into a digitally empowered society and knowledge economy. Grounded in constitutional mandates for public welfare, it provides e-services (Aadhaar-based identification, DigiLocker, BHIM UPI) to enhance transparency, reduce corruption, and streamline service delivery. Legislative support includes the IT Act, eGovernance policies, and data protection frameworks (forthcoming). While bridging digital divides is crucial to avoid exclusion, expansions like Common Service Centres have advanced e-literacy in rural areas. Digital India exemplifies how constitutional governance can adapt to technology for inclusive growth, though privacy and cybersecurity remain pressing concerns that need robust regulation.
