“E–Governance Initiatives in Gujarat– A Case Study”

Prof. Priyank Gokani, Prof. Dr. H. N. Pandya

Abstract :

Gujarat is pioneer in E–governance implementation compare to other states in India. Gujarat has implemented wide range of E–governance projects. When it comes to e–governance, there is no doubt that Gujarat is one of the top states in the country in this regard. Not only is the basket of services offered to citizens huge, but the results have also been tangible and widespread. Be it citizen–centric services or services for businesses in the state, Gujarat is one of the few states that not only has a clear e–governance charter, but is also strong on its policy footing. The last decade has seen a gamut of e–governance activities across the state and while some of them are still undergoing the transition from implementation to utilization, others are full blown projects that are providing a variety of services to the citizens of Gujarat. There are quite a few elements that Gujarat has got right in journey to a well e–governed state. While it has a lot to do with clear policies, it is also about having a well defined vision. Vision, for any e–governed state, necessarily has to percolate from the top. In that regard, Gujarat has been lucky as its leadership, with the CM at the forefront, has always believed in the potential of e–governance and how it can change the matrices of governing a state.
