It plays a significant role in the socioeconomic, scientific and technological development of

to the users. In the digital age, the contents are created in the form of web sites, virtual
libraries, databases, portals and web logs. The present paper describes the initiatives of
Government of India in context with content creation. The recommendations submitted by
National IT Task force in the IT Action Plans and their status of implementation has been
reviewed briefly. Major e-governance projects reported in official database of e-governance
projects in India in context with Content Creation were located and discussed briefly. |
