All 12,800 villages of Punjab are set to get all 14 citizen services under one roof from December this year, with the Rs 91-crore prestigious programme of 3017 e-gram at each Panchayat cluster becoming functional.

After going through the presentation by Joint Secretary of Ministry of Rural Development and Panchayat DK Jain as well as the experience cited by service providers and multinational IT companies contending for this prestigious job, Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Badal said the e-gram centres in 3,017 Panchayat clusters would provide citizen services, including issuance of birth and death certificates, domicile certificate, collection of power and water bills and collection of telephone bills under one roof.

The Deputy Chief Minister said e-grams had been provided with a special software that would keep a strict check on budget, daily fund release, fund received for various projects and budget of every village could be monitored on-line at the headquarters by the authorities concerned.

Dwelling upon the benefits of e-gram centres, Sukhbir said that besides maintaining a family register of each family in the village, these centres would act as a monitoring centre for the various state and centrally sponsored rural development schemes.

He said in the first phase, e-gram would be set up in 397 places up to the block level by December this year and would be extended to the village level by March 2011 by operationalising all 3017 e-gram clusters. He said each cluster would cover four to six villages and distance of e-gram from any village would not be more than 4 km.
