'Clouding' the Cities
For a highly populated country like India, it is really a herculean task for the government to provide efficient basic civic services to all through its web-net of municipal entities, each having their own Rules and Acts of governance. An automation drive for rolling out e-Governance schemes for the municipal offices may be a good thought for providing a quick and reliable citizen-centric service.

Data centre: 7 Steps to tide challenges
Considering, the amount of power a typical data centre guzzles, it is not surprising at all that it also happens to be the first port-on-call for the greening exercise. Typically in a data centre, the power consumption is as follows:50 per cent for cooling, 37 per cent for running the IT infrastructure, 10 per cent conversion loss and 3 per cent lighting.

I have approached Nandan for the same, hope I get some response.
I have a question to ask?
How will the database be helpful to root out corruption and how will it be helpful to the people who have not yet got their i-card... like BPL, how unique i.no. will be alloted to these bpl
Thumbs up for this particular step which has the potential to curb terror strike in the country as well! I would like to suggest that the thumb impression should be registered in the proposed unique identity card. This I have advocated in my numerous earlier postings to iGovernment newsletter: http://www.igovernment.in/site/india-plans-multi-purpose-national-id-car...,
http://www.igovernment.in/site/India-may-set-up-federal-agency-to-battle...
and in Times of India: http://o3.indiatimes.com/mytimes/archive/2008/07/29/4932459.aspx#4932780).
Signature is a good indicator of literacy but thumb impression is better for verification purpose.
To issue an unique identity card what database is required? Can you send details?

Unique Identification Database Authority of India (UIDAI)has been total disregard of the Census of India, they already have setup to undertake this national project. How would the project execution or up gradation take place ? There needs to be interlink with registrar of Births/Deaths and Census of India who conducts door to door survey of households. Unless there is partnership with the Census or concern ministry this task is only technical show peace but would be failure to operationalize in future.
Its good that the biomatrics technology would not be used to generate the cards. We can generate data from any point of interest either from banks, PO, Local body offices etc to get the name or ID of the citizens.
Sources data from body other than local corporations or panchayats would be ficticious and dangerous due to organisational mismatch in actual user or issued person incase of data from cards of Oil Companies or similar sources.
Lets take head count method or better statistical excercise to allocate the numbers from multiple source or multiple servers based technology.
Or search for better technology rather than allot the contract with untested or technologies adopted without public debate to known IT companies. Where is the research conducted and how this was done is internal ploy of selected IT companies who have large stake.
Lets not overemphasize IT firms without partnering with other service providers in Public or private. Nothing is fool proof and perfect.
