The role of Information Communications Technology ( ICT) is very important to deliver timely and efficient government services to the citizens and Government employees. NIC (National Informatics Centre), Government of India is the key department in the district to coordinate the ICT activities. Some of the project undertaken by NIC are as follows:

Jansuvidha Centre

Jan-suvidha is a software application developed by NIC Arunachal Pradesh State Unit to automate the process of issuance of various types of certificates and licenses from the Office of Deputy Commissioner. In addition, it is an attempt to provide a single-window solution to the citizens, where various services of the office of DC are provided under one roof. The citizen needs to approach only the receipt and delivery counter and no longer needs to find his way through the maze of branches in the office to get his or her work done. The project was developed as a result of the efforts of the then Deputy Commissioner, Lohit District Sh. Prashant Lokhande IAS and was first launched in Lohit District at its headquarters, Tezu. The application was subsequently customized for Upper Siang District and launched in the district.
