E- Governance Issues and Challenges

Abstract

Skilled manpower is, perhaps, the biggest challenge of all. India has nearly 475 million people engaged in labour, out of which about 93% are engaged in unorganized labour. Skilled manpower is essential for the development and effective adoption of new technologies. Creating a system to train and provide gainful employment to so many people is an immense challenge. Lastly, the fact that a project of this scale has never been completed in India before is, in itself, a major challenge. Effective execution is critical for success and several ambitious projects proposed by earlier governments have not been completed. The reasons behind these are numerous, but corruption, bureaucracy and apathy are some major reasons that ambitious projects have fallen apart in the past. This research paper is based on  E- Governance Issues and Challenges.
