Project Nemmadi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Rural Digital Services)

Project Nemmadi is a program initiated by the State Government of Karnataka, India to provide e-governance services to rural citizens.[1] It was initially piloted in 2003 at fourteen locations under the name Rural Digital Services (RDS). RDS was considered a success, and as a result, the program was expanded into Project Nemmadi, a public-private partnership with Comat Technologies. Between 2006 and 2009, approximately 800 facilities, called Nemmadi centers, were built statewide.[1][2]

These centers provide services such as the issue of birth, death, income, and caste certificates, ration cards, land records, and pensions.[1][3]
