Dear ALL,
IS the country’s e-Governance going in the right direction ? By looking what is happenning it is not !!! You all can look at and read what is happenning.
Our Hon’ble President has made so many statements about OS and SOURCE CODE, It looks like NISG does not get it. Why do we need an agency like that in INDIA to run our e-Governance ? OPEN SOURCE should be developed in INDIA along with what is happenning now. Let the best system survive in INDIA which gives more VALUE for our MONEY.
Also another thing is we have sold our EDUCATION System to a SINGLE VENDOR. IS this right to do ? Our culture goes back to so many years. This MNC does not know anything about this. Now this MNC has written CURRICULUM for PRIMARY, SECONDARY and HIGH SCHOOL. This is bad precedence for our country. This should be stopped now.
e-governance in India so far means bill collection. e-seva does not have any proper e-gov foundation. The bill collection system is meant for misleading the nation and probably to make a commission out of the system. Governments all over the country have been issuing marketing rights (bill collection rights) to one individual company!
This is not good for the country.
A time will come when people would realise the actual extent of damage AP had done to the nation through its e-seva project. Until that time India would continue to watch and officers and politicians would get a cut / commission from each such deal, may be even beyond their
retirement period.
The e-seva system had created a dangerously wrong precedent whereby the Government agencies and government employees have been kept out while the private partner does the bill collection alone, calling it citizen interface. This is like entrusting the exclusive marketing
rights of a government to a private company which is legally wrong too.
This has to be changed to process driven automation driven e-gov.
Singapore is there as a live example. But people prefer to look at AP’s e-seva which is a bill collection mechanism only. Please visit www.esevaonline.com to understand this.
Now this virus is spreading to Karnataka, Maharashtra, Rajastan and other places too.
We have the best IT companies in the world and also the best IT manpower in the world. The Governments should engage these IT companies to develop process automation based packages and maintain them on a long term basis.
WHY NISG has been entrusted with entire e-Governance of INDIA and States ? WHEN we have NIC and C-DAC is question ?
The person who thought of NISG must be the one who is pushing this BILL COLLECTION of e-Seva as e-Governance.
WHEN we have all these things in NIC. INDIA has come along way by working with NIC. Why all of a sudden NIC is being sidelined ? WHO IS DOING THIS ?
INDIA still has one more agency C-DAC - We need to look into this.
C-DAC can also come under NIC ?
NIC has EXPERIENCE !!! There is tra ck record.
NIC never drove the country to a monopoly vendor.
NISG is leadng the country in wrong path in e-Governance. Citizens of
India are noticing it what is happenning !!!
NISG is promoting BILL COLLECTION as e-Governance.
NISG is driving the country into MONOPOLY in e-Governance
NISG should come under NIC. NISG should be dissolved !!!!
This should be done effective immediately !!!
LOOK at the following information about NIC !!
I do not work for NIC and I do not have any deals with NIC ! like…?

The long-term objective of the National Informatics Centre, as approved by the Planning Commission, Ministry of Finance and the Electronics Commission, is ‘to establish the feasibility of a system for the provision of detailed information to government ministries and agencies to assist them in making decisions relating to the country’s economic and social development planning and programme implementation’. (Annual Report of the Department of Electronics, Government of India, 1977-’78,p172.)NIC was set up with the objective to promote economic, social, scientific and technological activities, and also for macro-economic adjustment programme of the Government, through the applications of IT.
Starting as a small programme under an external stimulus by an UNDP project in early 1970s, NIC started functioning in 1977 and since then it has grown incrementally and later exponentially as one of India’s major S&T Organisations promoting Informatics-led Development, which has helped to usher in the required transformation to cope with the trends in the new millennium.
NIC has played an important role of an active catalyst and facilitator in informatics development programme in Governments at the national, state and district levels, during the last 26 years which made them take policy decisions to create knowledge societies – societies that can exploit knowledge to derive competitive advantage using the opportunities provided by digital technology. NIC has been instrumental in adopting Information Technology and Communication Technology to reach out into India i.e. by implementing IT applications in Social and Public Administrations.
The organizational set up of NIC encompasses its Headquarters at New Delhi, State Units in all the 28 State capitals and 7 Union Territory Headquarters and District centres in almost all the Districts of India. The Organization employs a large pool of efficient technical manpower.
At the NIC Headquarters, a large number of Application Divisions exist which provide total Informatics Support to the Ministries and Departments of the Central Government. NIC computer cells are located in almost all the Ministry Bhawans of the Central Government and Apex Offices including the Prime Minister’s Office, the Rashtrapati Bhawan and the Parliament House.

NIC - NICNET || Network Security ||
A number of support services are being offered for achieving maximum Network Security, which are described below.
Vulnerability Assessment Service
Vulnerability assessment tools are used for determining existing problems or unguarded entrances in systems also called security holes. These holes may lead to potential problems . A substantial job is required to be done to find out , what kind of problems would arise if these holes were exploited .These tools may allow diagnosis of systems configurations which lead to potential problems.
FireWall Service
Enterprise firewalls are useful when internal systems are accessed from outside the organisation. Firewalls are a part of the security solution for an organisation, and are used for resctricting traffic according to certain parameters and policies.
Virus scanner has been installed for scanning and removing viruses from E- mails traffic entering NICNET.
SSL Support Services
Support services in setting up SSL for secure communication. Test certificates are provided for Web server and client systems for setting up SSL based web communications and Web publishing from MS Frontpage.
Incident Response Service
NIC-CIRT assists and guides the victim of the attack in recovering from an incident via phone, email or documentation. This can involve technical assistance in the interpretation of data collected, providing contact information or relaying guidance on mitigation and recovery strategies. It may or may not involve direct, on-site incident response actions. The NIC-CIRT may provide guidance remotely with the help of concerned System/network administrators.
Application Security Audit services
NIC has a host of applications deployed in various user departments. These applications may involve the collection and storage of important data over the network. The possibility of an attack on specific software applications is usually overlooked, and these may be the first to be exploited by a hacker. Such applications should thus have built-in features that take care of aspects such as Access Control, Data Integrity, Change Controls, Accountability,Service Continuity and the possibility of tracing unauthorized access to the application or the stored data. Application Security Audits on these applications can be carried out to determine such requirements.
Security Guideline/Alert Services
Site security Guidelines for Individual / Internet users in the ministries / departments of the government
Security Guidelines for Stand-Alone Systems
- Security Guidelines for Systems Connected to Network
- Operational Guidelines for Public Access Servers

About Us || History ||
BACKGROUNDComputers were used on a large scale for the first time during the World War II for military data processing. Its non-military uses gained momentum in the post-war period. India was one of the first countries of the world to utilise the capabiliity of computers in Education, R&D, Planning and National Dvelopment. The developments during ’50s and ’60s in terms of computer resources chronicled here would testify to this trend.

Government of India Initiatives
After the war with China in 1962, the Governemnt of India realised the importance and felt the need of a strong indigenous electronics base for security and national development and accordingly set up the Electronics Commettee (also known as the Bhabha Committee) under the Chairmanship of the renowned nuclear scientist Dr. Homi J Bhabha. The Committee in its report in 1966 focussed on computers as tools “to the dvelopment of a new outlook and a new scientific culture†and suggested the establishment of a National Computer Centre and five regional centres.
GENESIS
The Electronics Commission and the DOE put forward a proposal to UNDP for assistance to set up a National Computer Centre in Delhi for building up national data bases, developing the methodologies for utilising these, and for defining the various options and paths in decision-making at the national level. A UNDP team visited Delhi in March 1975 to study the proposal. The UNDP agreed to fund the National Informatics Centre to the extent of US $4.4 million for the purchase of a large computer system (costing approximately US $3.3 million), other hardware, training, the services of experts, etc.
‘In view of this, action has been taken to proceed with the preliminary work relating to the National Informatics Centre so that when UNDP financial assistance becomes available and the major hardware is commissioned (in 1978 on the basis of current information), the Centre can get on with its work on an expeditious basis. NIC is a plan project administered by the Information, Planning and Analysis Group (IPAG) of the Electronics Commission in its initial stages’.

Solving all problems of e-Governance at one step is impossible, but there should a plan for future to address these issues. We need to have e-governance Staregy, Mission and Vision. IF you all look at NIC has a TRACK record and it has what INDIA needs to get done.
We should plan for the development of the state and do not align with the SINGLE Vendor driven approaches like e-Seva. It is spreading like CANCER. This alignment binds us on technology, cost and proprietory solutions which in the long run will damage the system Usability, Scalability and Expandability.
e-Seva of AP is merely a web enablement and is being promoted by few people in NISG for it to becoming citizen’s friendly systems without back-end integration of applications run by different functionaries within and outside the departments. We all need to take this into consideration and act upon this.We need to learn from the pitfalls of the system and try to improvise the processes, security, integrity and accessability and accoutability issues.
We all need to think on having all these systems on OPEN SOURCE. That is the future. We need to spend our money in the right places and right TECHNOLOGY.
Systems we develop under OPEN SOURCE should be scalable and meet the demand of Security, Integrity and Accountability and Transperancy in operations as per the needs of the application and the environment. The systems are to be interoperable.
I hope this will give some kind of an URGENCY to concerned people at all levels to look into and see what is happenning in e-Governance of INDIA and different STATES and recomend to make changes in e-Governance methods.
If any questions, write an email letter. You will get answer.
NOT LIKE OUR BUREAUCRATS do by not answering their email letters.
