About Us 1

This is the Official Portal of the Government of India, designed, developed and hosted by the National Informatics Centre (NIC), a premier ICT organization of the Government of India under the aegis of the Department of Electronics and Information Technology (DeitY), the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology.

The Portal has been developed as a Mission Mode Project (MMP) under the National E-Governance Plan (NEGP) of the Government. The objective behind the Portal is to provide a single window access to the information and services being provided by the Indian Government for citizens and other stakeholders. An attempt has been made through this Portal to provide comprehensive, accurate, reliable and one stop source of information about India and its various facets. The current Portal is a metadata driven site that links to the other Indian Government Portals/websites for most updated information.

The content of this Portal is managed centrally by the National Portal Content Management Team from the National Portal Secretariat. It is our goal to continue the enhancement and enrichment of this Portal in terms of content coverage, design and technology on a regular basis.
