1. INTRODUCTION
E-governance is growing with the increasing use of information and communication technology (ICT) by government
to improve the quality of governance and service delivery. Governments all over the world have been using ICTs such as
internet, websites, computers and mobile phones to deliver services to the people. E governance activities such as display of
information relating to government service provisions, citizen feedback about government policies and performance, payment of
taxes, renewal of license with the help of ICT is on the increase. Electronic governance has the potential to address effectively
the service delivery issues like accessibility, equity, adequacy, responsiveness, transparency, people’s participation and
corruption etc. in service delivery process. Many developed countries have accorded e-governance a prominent place in public
sector reform and in public policies and have allotted a significant amount of funding to e-governance projects. E-governance is
also accorded a prominent place in the development agenda of developing countries as a promising tool for achieving good
governance, which is usually regarded as essential for economic and political development. India is fast catching up with other
countries to promote e-governance in a big way to improve the quality of governance and service delivery.

2. REVIEW OF LITERATURE
the identification of various issues that arose from the qualitative data that was collected through conducting interviews, has
informed the proposed model which has more constructs incorporated. The analysis covered six dimensions namely; information
quality, system quality, service quality, intention to use/use, user satisfaction and net benefits.
Nasrulla khan k (2016) in this article the author state that E-Governance top ranked countries are rich countries. Therefore, due
Importance should be given to the increase of economy of our country mainly agriculture sector.According to The United
Nations Bangalore is fourth in the world as a “Global hub of technological innovation”. The city ofBangalore is the "technology
hub of the East".But theVillages which are at average distance of 64 km away from Bangalore do not have proper.
ICTInfrastructure, electricity, network connectivity etc.
Neha Mahajan (2015) suggested that E-government is much more than tool for improving cost-quality ratios in publicservices.
It is an instrument of reform and a tool to transform government. Thus, government is not primarily about automation of existing
procedures (which may or may not be effective), but aboutchanging the way in which government conducts business and
delivers services
Saeed. M (2012) he revealed an assessment of e-governance through CIC Model was done. The scope of the study was to
analyze the activities of CICs in one of the districts in India. The district has its rural and tribal character and unique distinction
of ISO 9001:2000 certificate for integrated citizen centric services. The study investigated the demand-supply matching of e-
governance services rendered under the CIC model from the perspective of the providers, users and community people.
Sangeetha G, and Dr. L Manjunatha Rao(2015), they have discussed need of text mining based DSS for government
agencies, various text mining applications developed in e-government, architecture for system development process and
proposed an integrated framework that can be used by government organizations‟ to develop text mining based DSS. We have
also studied e-government objectives and the need for citizen centric systems for India and provided a road map for an Indian
TMbDSS project.
Shouzhi Xia(2017), he mentioned that the second one is emphasizing the importance of E-participation. The enhancement of E-
participation means that government liberalizes the restrictions on citizens’ political participation, so ordinary people have more
and more opportunities to play a role in public affairs, both online and offline. Without a doubt, it is the right way to improve the
level of political participation and liberty which characterizes political modernization in Asia.
SHAMIM(2016), he suggested we are, to my mind, living in the midst of digital Dark Ages; consequently, much as monks of
times past, it falls to librarians and archivists to hold to the tradition which reveres history and the published heritage connection,
High-speed internet,Digital Inclusion, e-Services, e-Governance, Digitallymotivated people, National Scholarships Portal,
Digital Lockers System, e-education and e-healthmaking India to be pioneer in IT use solution.
Nagaraja K(2016) in his article the E-governance is getting momentous in India. E-governance has had great role in each sphere
of the economy over number of years. India economy has been progressive one on account of good governance. Conventionally,
govt. used to struggle to provide services to its citizens before initiatives of e-governance.

Poonam Malik (2014) in his study the E-Governance enhances the relationships between G2G, G2C, G2B, C2G and B2G using
ICT. Thus, E-Governance not only provides information about various activities of a Government but also involves citizens to
participate in government‘s decision making process. During the last five years, many initiatives have been taken by different
state governments in India for using IT as a tool in the functioning of Government so as to provide better services to citizens.
Jayadatta , and chaco(2018) in their study a digitally connected India can help in improving social and economic condition of
people through development of non-agricultural economic activities apart from providing access to education, health and
financial services. However, it is important to note that ICT (Information and Communications Technology) alone cannot
directly lead to overall development of the nation. The overall growth and development can be realized through supporting and
enhancing elements such as literacy, basic infrastructure, overall business environment, regulatory environment, etc.
Mehek Gulati (2016) from his article the author focused on Digital India is an initiative of the Central Government of India
“designed to transform India into a global digitized hub” by reviving a rundown digital sector of India with the help of
improving digital connectivity and skill enhancement and various other incentives to make the country digitally empowered in
the field of technology. This paper helps understand the global as well as domestic challenges that might hinder the successful
implementation of the program and suggest some feasible remedies to deal with the same.
Neeru Gupta and Kawaldeep Arora (2015) suggested that Digital India programme comprises of various initiatives each
targeted to prepare India for becoming a knowledge economy and for bringing good governance to citizens through
synchronized and coordinated engagement of the entire government. Digital indicates to electronic technology which generates,
stores and processes data. It is stored in a virtual central repository that can be accessed anytime, anywhere, through established
protocols. Digital Technologies include Cloud Computing and Mobile Applications.
Himakshi Goswami(2016) he concluded that Digital India stands for transforming India into a digitally empowered knowledge
economy. It is an initiative of government of India to integrate the Government Departments and the people of India. It aims at
ensuring that the Government services are made available to citizens electronically by reducing paper work. The programme,
which has been conceived at the behest of the highest level in political hierarchy, foresees inter-ministerial co-operation and
collaboration towards the outline priorities with the expectation that relevant agencies across levels of Government would
engage themselves in pursuing the Digital India agenda.
Onkar Singh (2016) contributed that Digital India is power to empower which transforms manual system of Government into
electronic system. Now, it becomes easier for the citizens to take the benefit of electronic delivery of government services.
Digital India is an initiative made by Government of India to interact easily and efficiently with the public. It is the electronic
system which a government of India uses for providing efficient government services to public electronically by electronic
modes for improving and making good interaction with the citizens.
GeethaPrabhu and JewillaRodriges (2016) determined that Digital India aims to transform the country into a digitally
empowered society and knowledge economy. Digital India has a long way to go on its road to reality in its truest sense. The
government cannot overstep them, no matter how trivial they might seem to be. It is an initiative to build Digital infrastructure
and provide Internet access, service to every citizen along with Digital literacy to empower them to utilize it effectively. More
employment prospects will open for the youth that will boost the nation’s economy. Digital India campaign is a welcome step in
shaping India of the 21st century powered by connectivity and the technological opportunity.
Shekhar Srivastava (2016) explains that digital India is a dream to ensure that government services are made available for all
citizens electronically by improving online infrastructure and by increasing the effectiveness of Internet connectivity with one
mission and one target that is to take nation forward digitally and economically. This initiative was taken to ensure that the
citizens are getting engaged in the innovation process which is necessary for the economic growth and sustainable development
of the country.
SushoptiGawade et al. (2018) says that Digital India Program initiated by Government of India is the leading initiative which
will help to reduce the gap between the rural and urban sectors of the nation. The Government of India has implemented many
Government services for the benefit of the rural people. The rural people should be able to make use of these services for their
benefit. This will surely eliminate the Digital Divide of the country. Various projects of Digital India are still under
implementation phase. Some of the projects may require minute changes in future depending upon the nation’s requirement. The
reality of digital India will have positive impact on the lives of several people in urban as well as in rural areas.

Jyoti Sharma (2016) analysed that digitally connected India can help in improving social and economic condition of people

services. However, it is important to note that ICT (Information and Communications Technology) alone cannot directly lead to
overall development of the nation. The overall growth and development can be realized through supporting and enhancing

Giridhari Mohanta (2017) observed that Digital India is to provide Wi-Fi to people, creating job, universal phone connection,
high speed internet , Digital Inclusion, e- Services, e Governance, Digitally motivated people, National Scholarships Portal ,
Digital Lockers System, e-education and e-health making India to be pioneer in IT use solution. More employment prospects
will open for the youth that will boost the nation’s economy.
Kumar D (2017) analysed that a current view of E-Transactions in some of the E-Governance services of Tamil Nadu
Government. The success of E-Government lies in applying the principles in a coherent and holistic way by numerous people
across agencies, states consistently over a period. E-Governance is already playing a vital role in the global economy. The
various agencies of United Nations Organization (UNO) and the World Bank are already providing a vast support for the E-
Governance initiatives. E-Governance enhances the efficacy of citizen and Government interactions. In order to fulfil this need,
the Government has to encourage e-participation of the citizens in all its services.

INTRODUCTION E-governance is growing with the increasing use of information and communication technology (ICT) by government to improve the quality of governance and service delivery. Governments all over the world have been using ICTs such as internet, websites, computers and mobile phones to deliver services to the people. E governance activities such as display of information relating to government service provisions, citizen feedback about government policies and performance, payment of taxes, renewal of license with the help of ICT is on the increase. Electronic governance has the potential to address effectively the service delivery issues like accessibility, equity, adequacy, responsiveness, transparency, people’s participation and corruption etc. in service delivery process. Many developed countries have accorded e-governance a prominent place in public sector reform and in public policies and have allotted a significant amount of funding to e-governance projects. E-governance is also accorded a prominent place in the development agenda of developing countries as a promising tool for achieving good governance, which is usually regarded as essential for economic and political development. India is fast catching up with other countries to promote e-governance in a big way to improve the quality of governance and service delivery. 1.2 Vision Areas of Digital India Programme Digital India programme is initiated with the aim of achieving the following three major areas. There areas are identified and evaluated by the experts to estimate the economic and social development of the country.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE the identification of various issues that arose from the qualitative data that was collected through conducting interviews, has informed the proposed model which has more constructs incorporated. The analysis covered six dimensions namely; information quality, system quality, service quality, intention to use/use, user satisfaction and net benefits. Nasrulla khan k (2016) in this article the author state that E-Governance top ranked countries are rich countries. Therefore, due Importance should be given to the increase of economy of our country mainly agriculture sector.According to The United Nations Bangalore is fourth in the world as a “Global hub of technological innovation”. The city ofBangalore is the "technology hub of the East".But theVillages which are at average distance of 64 km away from Bangalore do not have proper. ICTInfrastructure, electricity, network connectivity etc. Neha Mahajan (2015) suggested that E-government is much more than tool for improving cost-quality ratios in publicservices. It is an instrument of reform and a tool to transform government. Thus, government is not primarily about automation of existing procedures (which may or may not be effective), but aboutchanging the way in which government conducts business and delivers services Saeed. M (2012) he revealed an assessment of e-governance through CIC Model was done. The scope of the study was to analyze the activities of CICs in one of the districts in India. The district has its rural and tribal character and unique distinction of ISO 9001:2000 certificate for integrated citizen centric services. The study investigated the demand-supply matching of e- governance services rendered under the CIC model from the perspective of the providers, users and community people. Sangeetha G, and Dr. L Manjunatha Rao(2015), they have discussed need of text mining based DSS for government agencies, various text mining applications developed in e-government, architecture for system development process and proposed an integrated framework that can be used by government organizations‟ to develop text mining based DSS. We have also studied e-government objectives and the need for citizen centric systems for India and provided a road map for an Indian TMbDSS project. Shouzhi Xia(2017), he mentioned that the second one is emphasizing the importance of E-participation. The enhancement of E- participation means that government liberalizes the restrictions on citizens’ political participation, so ordinary people have more and more opportunities to play a role in public affairs, both online and offline. Without a doubt, it is the right way to improve the level of political participation and liberty which characterizes political modernization in Asia. SHAMIM(2016), he suggested we are, to my mind, living in the midst of digital Dark Ages; consequently, much as monks of times past, it falls to librarians and archivists to hold to the tradition which reveres history and the published heritage connection, High-speed internet,Digital Inclusion, e-Services, e-Governance, Digitallymotivated people, National Scholarships Portal, Digital Lockers System, e-education and e-healthmaking India to be pioneer in IT use solution. Nagaraja K(2016) in his article the E-governance is getting momentous in India. E-governance has had great role in each sphere of the economy over number of years. India economy has been progressive one on account of good governance. Conventionally, govt. used to struggle to provide services to its citizens before initiatives of e-governance.
  • 3. © 2018 IJRAR December 2018, Volume 5, Issue 04 www.ijrar.org (E-ISSN 2348-1269, P- ISSN 2349-5138) IJRAR1944330 International Journal of Research and Analytical Reviews (IJRAR) www.ijrar.org 872 Poonam Malik (2014) in his study the E-Governance enhances the relationships between G2G, G2C, G2B, C2G and B2G using ICT. Thus, E-Governance not only provides information about various activities of a Government but also involves citizens to participate in government‘s decision making process. During the last five years, many initiatives have been taken by different state governments in India for using IT as a tool in the functioning of Government so as to provide better services to citizens. Jayadatta , and chaco(2018) in their study a digitally connected India can help in improving social and economic condition of people through development of non-agricultural economic activities apart from providing access to education, health and financial services. However, it is important to note that ICT (Information and Communications Technology) alone cannot directly lead to overall development of the nation. The overall growth and development can be realized through supporting and enhancing elements such as literacy, basic infrastructure, overall business environment, regulatory environment, etc. Mehek Gulati (2016) from his article the author focused on Digital India is an initiative of the Central Government of India “designed to transform India into a global digitized hub” by reviving a rundown digital sector of India with the help of improving digital connectivity and skill enhancement and various other incentives to make the country digitally empowered in the field of technology. This paper helps understand the global as well as domestic challenges that might hinder the successful implementation of the program and suggest some feasible remedies to deal with the same. Neeru Gupta and Kawaldeep Arora (2015) suggested that Digital India programme comprises of various initiatives each targeted to prepare India for becoming a knowledge economy and for bringing good governance to citizens through synchronized and coordinated engagement of the entire government. Digital indicates to electronic technology which generates, stores and processes data. It is stored in a virtual central repository that can be accessed anytime, anywhere, through established protocols. Digital Technologies include Cloud Computing and Mobile Applications. Himakshi Goswami(2016) he concluded that Digital India stands for transforming India into a digitally empowered knowledge economy. It is an initiative of government of India to integrate the Government Departments and the people of India. It aims at ensuring that the Government services are made available to citizens electronically by reducing paper work. The programme, which has been conceived at the behest of the highest level in political hierarchy, foresees inter-ministerial co-operation and collaboration towards the outline priorities with the expectation that relevant agencies across levels of Government would engage themselves in pursuing the Digital India agenda. Onkar Singh (2016) contributed that Digital India is power to empower which transforms manual system of Government into electronic system. Now, it becomes easier for the citizens to take the benefit of electronic delivery of government services. Digital India is an initiative made by Government of India to interact easily and efficiently with the public. It is the electronic system which a government of India uses for providing efficient government services to public electronically by electronic modes for improving and making good interaction with the citizens. GeethaPrabhu and JewillaRodriges (2016) determined that Digital India aims to transform the country into a digitally empowered society and knowledge economy. Digital India has a long way to go on its road to reality in its truest sense. The government cannot overstep them, no matter how trivial they might seem to be. It is an initiative to build Digital infrastructure and provide Internet access, service to every citizen along with Digital literacy to empower them to utilize it effectively. More employment prospects will open for the youth that will boost the nation’s economy. Digital India campaign is a welcome step in shaping India of the 21st century powered by connectivity and the technological opportunity. Shekhar Srivastava (2016) explains that digital India is a dream to ensure that government services are made available for all citizens electronically by improving online infrastructure and by increasing the effectiveness of Internet connectivity with one mission and one target that is to take nation forward digitally and economically. This initiative was taken to ensure that the citizens are getting engaged in the innovation process which is necessary for the economic growth and sustainable development of the country. SushoptiGawade et al. (2018) says that Digital India Program initiated by Government of India is the leading initiative which will help to reduce the gap between the rural and urban sectors of the nation. The Government of India has implemented many Government services for the benefit of the rural people. The rural people should be able to make use of these services for their benefit. This will surely eliminate the Digital Divide of the country. Various projects of Digital India are still under implementation phase. Some of the projects may require minute changes in future depending upon the nation’s requirement. The reality of digital India will have positive impact on the lives of several people in urban as well as in rural areas.

However, it is important to note that ICT (Information and Communications Technology) alone cannot directly lead to overall development of the nation. The overall growth and development can be realized through supporting and enhancing elements such as literacy, basic infrastructure, overall business environment, regulatory environment, etc. Giridhari Mohanta (2017) observed that Digital India is to provide Wi-Fi to people, creating job, universal phone connection, high speed internet , Digital Inclusion, e- Services, e Governance, Digitally motivated people, National Scholarships Portal , Digital Lockers System, e-education and e-health making India to be pioneer in IT use solution. More employment prospects will open for the youth that will boost the nation’s economy. Kumar D (2017) analysed that a current view of E-Transactions in some of the E-Governance services of Tamil Nadu Government. The success of E-Government lies in applying the principles in a coherent and holistic way by numerous people across agencies, states consistently over a period. E-Governance is already playing a vital role in the global economy. The various agencies of United Nations Organization (UNO) and the World Bank are already providing a vast support for the E- Governance initiatives. E-Governance enhances the efficacy of citizen and Government interactions. In order to fulfil this need, the Government has to encourage e-participation of the citizens in all its services. 2.1 Smart Phone, Mobile Phone Connections and Internet users Table No.1 Smart Phone, Mobile Phone Connections and Internet users Sl.
