You are requested to provide your inputs on the policy and suggest implementation approach across the government.

Hi....Government is facing the issue for finding wanted criminals. If Government can show the photographs of the criminals on popular TV shows like Comedy Nights with Kapil, Satya Meva Jayate, Tarak Mehta etc...Government can show the photograph and details of criminals on right side or bottom of TV. Government should also provide one toll free number on which citizen can provide information about the criminals. This will be very helpful for Govt. to find criminals.

It is good idea to publish open API's for all govt applications for Citizens usage. This also helps in effective integration between govt departments. It need to be taken to the Panchayat level integration. As a Citizen i always want to know what are the development programs Sanctioned by govt and how are those getting implemented at gross root level. For this i need to visit 5 different offices and get the information consolidated. If this kind of API's available,we can consolidate ease

The Second most important issue is land being made a black money parking heaven and its depriving needy people an access to basic housing on one side we are looking for a high character nation and other end the honest guy is the worst hit as he cant even build a house so why have you not thought to put a price ceiling on max land price in India instead of planning 100 ideas this simple idea would crash the land price and this is the biggest need of the hour

It will be better to link API policy with IoT policy. An interface between both these policies is needed. Integration of all IT and e-Governance related policy will save us from future complexitities.

I have read the policy document that seems to be very good and professional. If we can provide a digital ID card to all our citizens this initiative will be more meaningful. One can just type his ID while providing any data or information to government and statutory bodies and all informetion needed will be retrieved.
