Abstract
This paper focuses on strategies undertaken in India and other developing economies to achieve empowerment of all stakeholders, particularly the rural poor, through context oriented policies of e-governance. With a strong emphasis on principles of governance, the government’s involvement in the implementation of information and communication technology at all levels of central and state governments is analyzed. The goal of the digital economy is to have a universal reach. Additional reforms are suggested to address the limitations in the current measures.
