country. Modi government in the centre has

Akhilesh Yadavs Government has multi-dimensional
strategy to provide the benefits of Information

for the Modi government to see that CM Akhilesh
Yadavs efforts have developed Uttar Pradesh to a
state where computer literacy and awareness has
reached in all areas. Under the dynamic
leadership of CM Akhilesh Yadav, Uttar Pradesh

Modi Government talks about digitization of the
country and Akhilesh Yadavs Government makes it
real. We can firmly say this, because of

   year 2015 across all sectors like certificate
   issuance, land records, PDS, Transport etc and is
   the second top State in the Country in terms of
   e-Transactions.

Government has digitally empowered Uttar Pradesh
with so many services? Let us look at the six
