All 3 Pillars of Government are focused on speedy Implementation

GOVERNMENT

Across 35 States & Union Territories – multiple establishments & multiple channels for delivery of public services need Re-engineering

► Fragmented structures ► Archaic processes ► Lack of co-ordination and communication ► Lack of Transparency, Accountability & Clarity ► Duplication of Efforts, Conflicting Priorities & Increasing Costs ► Inadequate trained manpower ► Inadequate Local self government ► Pendency in Judicial system ► Poor Infrastructure & Connectivity ► Increased threat of Security, Safety & Disaster ► Increasing Citizen expectations

Unified Information Infrastructure will expedite implementation

However, there are substantial Challenges in Implementation

Executive Legislature Information Judiciary FUTURE OF GOVERNANCE

PUBLIC INFORMATION INFRASTRUCTURE (PII) to

►Create - access, connectivity,

systems, processes, programs, structures, standards & platform

►Integrate

Multiple Platforms Needed

VOICE BROADBAND UID SECURITY GIS APPLICATION PAYMENT

NOFN

Broadband Connectivity to 250,000 Panchayats

► Densify fiber on existing CPSU fiber (3,00,000

Rkm) to provide reach in each village Panchayat and provide active infrastructure at GP (ONT + UPS + Solar Panel + WiFi)

► All Fiber & Towers assets have been mapped on

GIS

► In the interim provide 100 mbps connectivity to

Panchayats

► Connect all blocks to districts with 1 gbps and

integrate with NKN, building a nation wide government CUG

Connectivity to Panchayats 3 tier structure

Tertiary Primary Secondary Core Network up to Districts at 1+1 gbps Core Network at Sub district Level with 1 Gbps Edge and access network 100 mbps With hot spots at panchayat Last mile cable TV

PII – NATIONAL DATA CENTERS

► Enable Standardized Development/ Deployment platform ► Create Disaster recovery and Business continuity plan ► Ensure Co-hosting / Co-Location for hosting of Application/

Data

► Undertake consolidation of Data Centres ► Create Managed Data Center facilities ► Provide Information repository ► Create Data mining capabilities

PII – All DATA CENTERS

National Data Center State Data Center

►Total Data Centers: 39 ►35 States have individual Data Centers in different stages of operations ►4 National Data Centers to manage operations Need to harmonize & standardize Data Center creation & operation
