How Rajasthan is making great strides in eGovernance
AMIDST VARIOUS INDIAN STATES competing with each other in terms of efficient citizen service delivery through use of technology, Rajasthan has already established itself as an ardent adopter of innovative solutions
The largest Indian state, Rajasthan places itself among the biggest adopters of technology in the eGovernance space. Over the last decade, the state has been in the news for rolling out numerous IT initiatives and using technology to ensure efficient delivery of citizen services. Rajasthan is also one of the early adopters of emerging technologies such as blockchain. Having four smart cities – Jaipur, Udaipur, Kota and Ajmer – Rajasthan further strengthens its identity as one of the most technology-enabled states in India.
Most recently, Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot was in the news for enjoying a drive on the virtual track at a digital museum during a visit to the Bhamashah Technohub and State Data Centre. The Chief Minister was impressed with the virtual reality technology and tried his hands on virtual games including football and cricket. He also monitored the progress of start-ups working in the domain of artificial intelligence, robotics, 3D printing and XRVR technologies.
Whereas, in the area of cybersecurity, Rajasthan Police plans to hire cyber experts to tackle cyber crimes and criminals, and have asked the state government to form an agency that’s well-equipped to handle these new-age criminals.
