Aims of E-panchayat as a mission mode project are :
(1) Internal computerization of panchayat process
(2) Enabling panchayat to make effective use of IT
(3) Enabling people to effective use of IT
(4) Bring out transparency in working of the panchayat
Codes :
Answer: C
The keyed answer is (1), (2) and (4), which leaves out (3), enabling people to make effective use of IT.
The e-Panchayat Mission Mode Project under the National e-Governance Plan was designed to automate the internal workflow of panchayats (statement 1), to equip panchayats to use IT in their planning, accounting and monitoring (statement 2), and to make their working more transparent and accountable (statement 4). These match the objectives the Ministry of Panchayati Raj lists for the project, such as automation of internal workflow and greater transparency and accountability.
I could not find 'enabling people to effective use of IT' among the project's stated objectives; the project's focus is on the panchayat and the services it gives citizens. Citizen-centric service delivery is an aim, so a reader could argue for (3) as well, and this is why the key rests on the exact wording of the official list, which I could not check word for word. Options A, B and D all contain (3), which is why they are not the keyed answer.
