Digital governance in India - statistics and facts
Widespread digital transformation in India is leading the country into an era of digital governance. The economic liberalization of 1991, industry-related reforms, and increasing interest of foreign multinationals in the Indian market spiraled into the growth of the Indian IT industry and digital infrastructure in the country. The developments in the 1990s culminated in the introduction of the Information Technology Act, of 2000, India’s first IT-related regulation. This was followed by the national e-governance plan in 2006.
