Vasudha Kendras (CSC)
The Government of India has launched the National e-Governance Plan (NeGP)
for delivering e-Government services at the doorsteps of the rural
citizens of India. The front-end interface of the NeGP with the rural
citizens is the Common Services Centers (CSC) through which the
Government Services along with other value added services would be
delivered to the citizens. The aim of the Scheme is not merely to roll
out IT infrastructure but to build a network of 100,000+ rural
businesses across India.
The
Government of Bihar in its Endeavour to improve the quality of
governance in the State, has involved public/ private enterprises to
participate in the CSC scheme as Service Centre Agencies (SCAs) for
establishing and operating 8463 CSCs in rural areas of Bihar. In Bihar
the scheme has been christened as Vasudha Kendras. These
Vasudha Kendras would offer a multitude of services ranging in the
areas of e-Government, education, health, agriculture, commercial,
retail, etc. It is to be noted that delivery of Government services
would be mandatory for the Vasudha Kendras.
To implement the Vasudha Kendras three Service Center Agencies (SCA) namely SREI Sahaj, Zoom Connect and SARK Systems has been selected. These SCAs will select the Village Level Entreprenuers (VLE), will provide them the requisite hardware, will train them and will ensure the delivery of various Business to Citizen Services. As soon as the back-end computerization of Government department is completed Government to Citizen centric services will be launched through these Vasudha Kendras in phases. At present around 4500 Vasudha Kendras are up and running in all the 38 districts of the State of Bihar.
