“11th eIndia-Maharashtra 2015” was off to a great start with none other than Devendra Fadnavis, Chief Minister of the State, addressing the gathering right in the first session. Appreciating the initiative, the Chief Minister said that given the strides the State has made in implementing IT interventions for better service delivery, the capital city of Mumbai is the right place to organise such an event. Talking about good governance, CM Fadnavis underlined the importance of transparency, efficiency and inclusiveness. Other dignitaries speaking in the session pointed out how technology is helping in grooming start-ups, apart from all-necessary financial assistance. They also spoke of the crucial role the Digital India programme will help shape up both rural as well urban landscape, be it about healthcare delivery, banking and financial services, and infrastructure development.
