National e-Governance Plan (NeGP) initiative of the Government of India (GOI) aims for ushering e-Governance at a national scale and is one of the most ambitious programs of the Government of India aimed at improving the quality, accessibility and effectiveness of Government services to citizens and businesses with the help of Information and Communication Technology. One of the key focus areas of NeGP is the stress on citizen-centric services as against merely computerization of the departments.
e-District has been envisaged by Government of Madhya Pradesh (GoMP) as automation of workflow and internal processes of District Administration with the possibility of seamless integration of various departments for providing services to the citizens. This project is of paramount importance to the State as it would help in creating an electronic workflow system for the district administration and help in providing efficient individual department services through Common Service Centers (CSCs), Samadhan Ek Din centers, MP-Online kiosks and internet, which would be the primary front end channels as envisaged in the project.
