India’s online revolution is on the edge of
an exciting phase. At the turn of the century, the country had only 5 million
Internet users, largely on dial-up connections delivered through fixed-line
networks. In 2009, Internet use took off as mobile penetration grew and
companies began to invest in data networks. By 2013, mobile Internet had
overtaken fixed line, and mobile devices had become the sole access device for
many people. Today, 230 million Indians are online, with 155 million of them
using mobile devices.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. As a
research study : In the next three years, India will see another mobile
explosion as the online community more than doubles to 480 million. By 2017,
385 million people will have smartphones, six times more than today, and the
number of online transactors will explode to 160 million—eight times as many as
today. Data consumption will triple, and consumers will be buying five times as
much content. This transformation will happen at an unprecedented pace.
This e revolution will bring empowerment , equity and efficiency of citizen
for citizen and this will transform the peoples life. This revolution will
enhance service delivery and programme implementation and monitoring
This e-revolution will not be complete without participation of Government. Though Government Ministries and Departments have increased their presence on social media and improved the contents of their websites in big way but it is still not enough. Lets hope that Government will impart more information and provide more services through e-way to bring about the complete e-revolution.
