Summary
4. E-Governance
E-Government is about a process of reform in the way Governments
work, share information and deliver services to external and internal
clients for the benefit of both government and the citizens and
businesses that they serve.
E-Government harnesses information technologies such as Wide Area
Networks (WAN), Internet , World Wide Web, and mobile computing
by government agencies to reach out to citizens, business, and other
arms of the government to:
– Improve delivery of services to citizens
– Improve interface with business and industry
– Empower citizens through access to knowledge and information
– Make the working of the government more efficient and effective
The resulting benefits could be more transparency, greater
convenience, less corruption, revenue growth, and cost reduction.

7. The Common Support Infrastructure
Common Service Centres (CSCs)
– These centres are intended to serve as front-end delivery points
for government, private and social sector services in an integrated
manner to rural citizens of India. This scheme aims at establishing
about 100,000 Common Services Centres across the country, one
each for every six census villages.
– The objective is to develop a platform that can enable
government, private and social sector organizations to align their
social and commercial goals for the benefit of the rural population
in the remotest corners of the country through a combination of
IT-based as well as non-IT-based services.
– The placement of a CSC in a cluster of villages is supposed to
follow a ‘honey comb’ structure so that the services provided by it
are easily accessible to the rural population residing in the cluster.
9. The Common Support Infrastructure
State Wide Area Network (SWAN) - for connectivity
The establishing Wide Area Networks in all States and UTs across the
country, from the Headquarter of each State/UT to the Blocks.
It would serve in providing G2G and G2C services, especially for the
various Mission Mode Projects.
Presently, SWAN has been rolled-out in Delhi, Chandigarh, Haryana,
Himachal Pradesh and Tamil Nadu.
State Data Centre (SDC) - for secure hosting of data and
applications
These would consolidate services, applications and infrastructure to
provide efficient electronic delivery of G2G, G2C and G2B services
through common delivery platform seamlessly supported by the State
Wide Area Network (SWAN) connecting up to the villages through the
Common Service Centres (CSCs).
Its key functions would be to act as the Central Repository of the State,
provide secure data storage, disaster recovery and remote management
functions etc.

12. Examples / Applications
Need for Power Sector Reform
Power sector reform is the biggest problem the Indian economy faces. It can
be seen from following factors:
The public system has a plant load factor (PLF) of about 77 per cent.
Transmission and distribution losses are around 30 per cent
Average power shortage is around 8-9 per cent and peaking shortages
hit 12-15 per cent
Financial losses for the sector amount to nearly 4 per cent of GDP -
those are mostly incurred and absorbed by states and add to the
consolidated fiscal deficit
Manufacturing sector losses crores of rupees due to power outages
Roughly 20% rural households are off-grid
Per capita consumption of power is around 700 units per annum. It is
very low compared to developing economies like China (1379 units in
2003) or and nowhere near to developed economies like US (13,066
units in 2003)
13. Power Sector
Power Sector – Statistics for 2009 and forecasted growth for
2017
The end consumers are looking forward to electric utilities providing
reliable and quality services that can be accessed conveniently. The
increased competition in power sector will lead to improved service,
increased per capita consumption and reduction in tariffs
Key Parameters 2009 2017E
Installed Capacity (MW) 147000 335000
Per Capita Power Consumption (KWh) 612 Over 1000
Electricity Generation (Billion Units) 724 1524
Rural Electrification (%) 47% 100%
Number of Villages Electrified 83% 100%
14. Key Statistics
India is the sixth largest producer and consumer of electricity in the world
The number of consumers connected to the Indian power grid exceeds 75
million.
India is third largest in the world in terms of the total length of transmission
and distribution lines [6.6 million circuit km (cKm)]
It is estimated that India will need 315 -335 GW by 2017 and 800 GW of power
by 2030
83% of the villages are electrified but 57% of rural households do not have
access to electricity
To overcome India’s Power deficit, India's energy sector will require an
investment of around US$ 120 bn - US$ 150 bn over the next five years and
US$ 600 bn over the next ten years
India’s energy requirement by 2030 is projected to be nearly six times of what
it currently is
A lack of focus on the Distribution side over the years has resulted in energy
losses as high as 35% in several states whereas the world average is about
10%
Demand Supply gap has worsened and the Peak Deficit of power has reached
13 %
15. Key Statistics
Installed Capacity in India
1947 1362 MW
2003 97000 MW
2009 150000 MW
16. e-Governance Model
Power Distribution Sector
An overall approach for deploying a comprehensive e-Governance
solution should take into consideration the following three key
initiatives
1. Business Process Re-engineering (BPR)
2. IT Strategy and Deployment Plan
3. Change Management
19. Way forward
The importance of e-Governance in the Power Sector necessitates a
call to action for the Government, the Regulators and the Private
Sector.
• Government – The Government needs to focus on providing a
conducive environment for continuous growth of the Power Sector.
• Regulators – The independent regulators need to focus on framing
policies that encourage growth and address the needs of the Power
Sector.
• Private Sector – Private players need to partner effectively with the
Government for providing solutions for e-Governance and executing
projects timely
20. e-Seva for Andhra Pradesh

22. Critical Success Factors
Strong Political and Administrative Leadership , detailed
Project Management
Clearly identified goals and benefits
Significant Process Reengineering Required
Start Small, scale up through stages, manage expectations
Adopt established standards and protocols – minimize
customization
In-source Analysis ; Outsource design, software
development, data preparation, training, etc.
Training Expenses should not be minimized
23. Organization for Implementing e-
governance
A champion at the political level
Ministerial level co-ordination committees
A central support group
Departmental Champions and co-ordination committee
Institution for Training
Private sector partners
24. Issues that Need Resolution
No country is completely ready? Balance between
strategizing, coordination and action
Approach: centrally driven versus departmental initiative?
Role, mandate, size of a central support agency. Where
should it be created?
Creating departmental ownership: Budget allocations,
training, demand, performance push
Who can help?(partnership with private sector: multi
national/local/one or many partners, partnering
arrangement)
How can progress be measured?
25. Corruption in Service Delivery
Complex rules-need for intermediaries
Discretion to delay or deny without assigning reasons
Decisions and actions are not traceable. Citizens have poor
access to information
Lack of supervision in remote areas-problems of
decentralization
Large power distance between civil servants and citizens-afraid
to assert and complain
Poor mechanisms of complaint handling. Documentation is
weak for any investigation
26. Impact of e-Governance
Faster processing, shorter wait, shorter queues
Less number of trips to government offices: saves transport
cost and avoids wage loss
More accurate and legible documents, easy recovery from
errors, better reception areas
Lesser corruption more transparency
Improved access to offices (nearer home, 24X7) and
functionaries (no intermediaries)
User fee may be levied- issue of acceptance
Improved complaint handling
27. Summary : e-governance is not
irreversible magic
e-Governance can advance the agenda on Governance reform,
transparency, anti- corruption, empowerment. It is NOT a panacea
Potential is recognized but Implementation is difficult. Gains are real
but risks need to be understood. Challenge is to promote wide spread
use in areas where benefits outweigh risks.
Situate in a broader framework of anticorruption. Identify all pressure
points and reengineer to remove discretion, simplify procedures and
put out as much information in public domain.
Create competition in delivery channels
Strengthen physical supervision and actionable MIS
