Visakhapatnam: Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu has urged the Centre to first start the e-Governance and IT related projects in Andhra Pradesh as the state has already developed necessary infrastructure for its implementation.
Delivering an inaugural address at the two-day 20th National Conference on e-Governance which began here today, the Chief Minister said "Andhra Pradesh government has been promoting Information Technology in a big way, the Union Government should first start IT related projects in the state and then replicate them at other places."
The state government introduced cashless and digital transactions soon after demonetisation and all steps were taken to mitigate hurdles faced by people due to high currency call back, said the Chief Minister.
He said the e-Governance meet will help share knowledge and bring innovative ideas.
