Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan declares state as fully e-governed; first in country

Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Thursday declared the southern state as India’s first fully e-governed state where an entire range of government services have been digitised so that they can be provided to the citizens promptly and transparently. The Chief Minister, after declaring the state as totally e-governed, said it would not only create a network of government offices and citizens, but would use technology for Kerala’s development and empower the people by bridging the digital divide.

It would also fast track the journey towards a knowledge society and economy with total e-literacy, he said at the ‘Total e-Governance Kerala’ event.
