It is one of the prime intent of Government of India (GoI) to ensuremajority of government services to be delivered electronically to the citizen through the medium of web and mobile. It is ...therefore, besides making government services online, Digital India Programme of GoI is making concerted efforts towards improving the IT infrastructure and increasing Internet speed and penetration.
Most of the websites for Information/Service delivery does not follow the best web practices. It has been observed that majority of Government websites are facing critical problems like missing identity of the website, outdated and irrelevant content and inconsistent presentation and navigation strategy. Above all, websites are also lacking sensitivity towards differently abled section of society who requires careful attention to access the government information and services. These flaws in government web sites are creating hurdle for the citizens to effectively use them.
To address and resolve the above mentioned issue, the need of the hour is to build an efficient solution and mechanism. This will ensure effective delivery of information through the websites. In pursuance of the same, a set of guidelines were developed for Indian Government websites with an objective to make the Indian Government websites comply with the essential pre-requisites of UUU Trilogy i.e.; Usable, User-Centric and Universally Accessible and to establish a protocol for any website running under a Government establishment.
This paper discuss about the basic issues and challenges in implementing the "Guidelines for Indian Government Websites (GIGW)" on few Indian Government websites of its key establishments namely NIC (National Informatics Centre) Portal (http://www.nic.in), MeitY (Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology) Portal (http://http://meity.gov.in) and Open Government Data Platform (https://data.gov.in) as well as a study conducted on National Mobile Governance Initiative (https://mgov.gov.in). This Paper also highlights the common reasons for the non-compliance of the guidelines and suggests mechanisms to expedite the process.

In recent times, information technology (IT) has a tremendous influence on how different Indian Government departments operate. Governments around the world are increasingly interested in the ...potential for delivering government services through internet. Examples of substantial transition to electronic service delivery can be found in some sectors in some countries, however most government services have failed to evolve from enhanced information-based web pages. The failure to move from manual services to e-service provision is most notable in the local government sector at District Collectorate office at district level, despite numerous policies and hopeful deadlines imposed by governments at all levels. This paper presents research, which examined the current status of Nagpur District Collectorate Centre's service delivery, exploring the appropriateness of current e-Business maturity models for evaluating the Progress of local governments making towards electronic service delivery. The research involved an evaluation of local government service center. In an effort to promote and enhance the use of web sites, local governments have started to make non-integrated moves toward e-Governance. One of the important factors to provide efficient government services is availability of all government services through a single point delivery platform. The government departments should have an integrated platform with a secured access control system. It is thus important to design a coherent enterprise architecture framework for the government departments. The aim of this research paper is to outline an effective enterprise architecture framework and an innovative technological solution that can serve as the common platform for provision of all government services to the citizen of India. The Authority Centre will receive the application from CSCs. A software should be developed for the Authority Centre which will be common for the highest authority to the clerical staff. Now the application will be processed and the decision will be made for approval and disapproval, which will be sent back to CSC. Thus the citizen will come to know about the status of his application at the CSCs only. A website should be developed mainly for the Urban Citizens which are very much familiar to the Internet. The website will provide various services easily to the citizens and they can access these services anywhere, any time. These plans can be implemented at District level and hope it will extend for the State as well as National level. The basic services such as Ration card application, Pension, Agricultural services, Police records, Below poverty line(BPL) facilities, Medical help are very difficult to access and avail. As about 70% of Indian population leave in villages, these people have to come at the district place to avail the services. And it is very inconvenient for them, so we propose the new concept of Common Service Centre (CSC). These centres will be present at the grass hood level, having an officer in charge with a computer having an internet connection with a software installed on it. The citizens can avail services at these CSCs.

Conference Proceeding
Exponential growth of telecom industry in India has given rise to significant increase in the number of Unsolicited Commercial Communications (UCC). This has led to increased level of public concern ...over receipt of large number of UCC. To give relief to affected telecom subscribers, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has brought in "Telecom Unsolicited Commercial Communications Regulations 2007" in June 2007 and subsequent amendments in March 2008 and October 2008 to restrict such UCCs. To implement the said regulation, TRAI has decided to use ICT tools to setup National Do Not Call (NDNC) Registry Portal and engaged National Informatics Centre (NIC), Government of India, for IT enablement of NDNC Registry.
NDNC Registry Portal has been set up in G2C (affected telecom subscribers), G2B (Telecom Operators (TOs) and Telemarketers (TMs)) and G2G (TRAI, Department of Telecommunications (DoT)) domains and is implemented to curb the UCCs and give relief to the society at large who are making use of telecom resources. The NDNC Registry has consolidated databases of subscribers of all TOs operating in India who do not wish to receive UCC, TMs who want to scrub their calling lists and the telecom resources being used by such TMs.
India’s achievements in development of Water Resources have been remarkable, since independence. The National Water Policy 2002 has addressed the issues related to develop, conserve, utilize and ...manage these important natural resources in this Millennium. There are approximately 20 million Minor Irrigation structures in the country, which are classified as: Dugwell, Shallow Tube well, Deep Tube well, Surface Flow Irrigation Scheme, and Surface Lift Irrigation Scheme.The Ministry of Water Resources (MoWR) has already conducted three Censuses with the reference Year: 1986-87, 1993-94 and 2000-01, and currently Census with the reference Year 2006-07 is in progress. National Informatics Centre (NIC) is involved in computerizing the census data and subsequent data analysis as per the business logic given by MoWR.This Paper draws a roadmap for using this database for formulating various Schemes to improve the socio-economic condition of small and marginal farmer, and also its immense need for grassroots level development and planning for Water Resources Management and Planning. This paper also shows as to how this database is useful to the national initiatives such as “DISNIC-Plan: IT for Micro Level Planning”, a Central Sector Schemes of NIC and recommended by Planning Commission (http://www.disnic.gov.in) and “Agriculture Resources Information Systems (AgRIS)”, a Central Sector Scheme of the Department of Agriculture & Cooperation in Pilot Districts (http://www.agris.nic.in). This becomes a major component of the proposed “National Water Portal” of the MOWR.
The spread of bioinformatics centres across India is primarily due to the extensive infrastructure and network that was initiated way back in 1980s by S. Ramachandran, the first Secretary of the ...Department of Biotechnology (DBT), Government of India, and is being supported at 168 locations across the country. Anticipating the dawn of bioinformatics globally as an integration of informatics and biology, the seeds were sown by the linkage set up by the National Informatics Centre (NIC) led by N. Seshagiri (Director General of NIC), in a remarkable collaboration with DBT. As with biotechnology, strong teaching initiatives by DBT at the post-graduate level across the country helped in the growth. The recent bioinformatics certification examinations and the consequent fellowships are part of a seminal exercise that tries to provide standards in an area which saw unregulated mushrooming growth in the last decade. Unlike in the USA and Europe, where bioinformatics was nucleated by sequence analysis, in India the strong crystallography and biophysics structural background from the tradition of G. N. Ramachandran resulted in the initial tilt of bioinformatics in India towards structural perspectives. The Biotechnology Information System Network (BTISNET) captured through development of databases, by the centres distributed across the country, recording the diversity of biological resources in the country. The advent of mega sequencing and the large-scale import of genomics and proteomics technologies resulted in the growth of many bioinformatics groups and companies, several of which have connections to the centres of the BTISNET. Following the bioinformatics policy document, the recent years have seen the nurturing of the North Eastern Bioinformatics Network and also international collaborative ventures with countries in Asia and Europe. The trend of an admixture of experimental and computational biology approaches that are needed for systems and synthetic biology is becoming common and signals the next phase of expansion and integration of the bioinformatics network.

In Japan, genome research has proceeded by bioinformatics center through various genome projects and specific databases ahve constructed to organize projects based on the long-linear model from DNA ...sequence to proteomics. Bioinformatics center becomes essential place in which research as proteomics, comparative genomics, and genome annotation. Here are introduced genome project, bioinformatics center, and specific databases such as KEGG, and DDBJ constructed by large purpose-directed projects in Japan. Currently, the portal centers provide access to more than 70 data bases and to about 50 bioinformatics applications. Continually, Japan's biotechnology institute have been developing a knowledge-based approach for network prediction, which is to predict, given a complete set of genes in the genome, the protein interaction networks, and all metabolic pathways and some regulatory pathways. Expecially, bio-pathway database is an abstract network of gene products which representing not only the pathway from protein-protein interactions, but also the metabolic network viewed as a network of enzymes. In future, Japan's center is going to provide Web service to easily construct bioinformatics workflows and pipelines combining two or more instruction to solve complex biological tasks such as protein function prediction, genome annotation, microarray analysis, etc.
The National Agricultural Biotechnology Information Center (NABIC) plays a leading role in maintaining the agricultural genome information in Korea. Our system provides valuable genomic information, ...including genetic markers, gene annotation, analytical tools and next-generation sequencing system to analyze massive sequencing data. In 2014, we reconstructed a biological integrated-based genome database for agricultural plants and livestock. The NABIC has developed the application of informatics approaches to agricultural biotechnology to support molecular and conventional breeding programs for new crops. In the future, we plan to develop an integrated biotechnology database that combines genome and gene functional information in the major crops. In addition, we will provide a BIGDATA-based database and bioinformatics tools to solve complex biological problems with next-generation sequencing technologies to analyze massive sequencing and transcriptomics data.
