The report also captures the details of e-services by states and UTs made available through their single unified service delivery portals and status of incorporation of the three new additional assessment parameters that have been included in the NeSDA framework, namely, Open Government Data, e-participation and leveraging Emerging Technologies.
Comprehensive service delivery portals of Central government ministries/departments, the Goods and Services Tax Portal and National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal have been highlighted as examples of best practices in the report.
The Department of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances (DARPG) formulated the National e-Governance Service Delivery Assessment (NeSDA) Framework in 2019 to assess states and UTs and Central Ministries with regard to the delivery of their e-services as a benchmarking exercise, covering seven sectors.
DARPG conducts the NeSDA study biennially. DARPG monitors the progress made in e-service delivery across states/UTs through inputs provided by them on NeSDA Way Forward Dashboard, NeSDA Way Forward monthly reports and regular review meetings with SPoCs from states and UTs. So far, 25 NeSDA Way Forward Monthly Reports and the Annual Report 2023 have been published to monitor the status of e-service delivery across states and UTs.
This series of NeSDA Monthly Reports systematically monitors and evaluates the scale and quality of e-Services provided across all states and Union Territories since its inception in April 2023. The update has consistently reported on three key categories of online services each month: all e-Services, mandatory e-Services, and those delivered through a unified portal.
