BSNL Prepares itself for Digital India

BSNL has increased its focus on Mobile Governance and come up with a new policy for realizing the revenue potential of upcoming Mobile Governance projects launched by government at central and state level. The revenue opportunity in this field has increased multi fold in view of government project of “Digital India” which aims to leverage ICT and Mobile technology capabilities to deliver governance to common citizens across the length and breadth of the country. 
Shri Anupam Shrivastava, Director(Consumer Mobility), BSNL Board said ” Mobile Technology which till now was being seen just as enabler have become central for delivering Governance and utility services to common citizens. The good news is that with the announcement of proactive government policies, the whole ecosystem has started moving up in right direction. New powerful and cheaper mobile devices with wide support for regional languages are coming which will help in delivering services in local language. 
M-governance complements e-Government in delivering services and public information to citizens due to its nature of being available anywhere- anytime. 
BSNL till date was mainly engaged in executing infrastructure projects related to M-Governance, but with new policy in place there will be more focus on services based projects. This policy lays the framework for efficient execution of M-Governance service projects by ensuring close co-ordination with business partners and Governments. 
He added that BSNL being the owner of one of the largest and widest network in the country with large skilled work force is best positioned to help government in realizing the goal of on demand delivery of governance. BSNL is now streamlining its procedures to match the timeline expectations of the Government and ensure timely execution of projects. 
BSNL is having deep rooted relations with all government departments which will we leveraged to get more projects. We expect that in near future a large component of our top line revenue will come from this segment.”
