Prime Minister Narendra Modi had also stressed upon the effectiveness of E-governance and economical governance.
"The biggest problem is that we who are in the Government think that no one knows anything better than us; this is wrong, we must trust our citizens. Inspector Raj is a big problem, I believe e-governance is effective and economical governance; it is also important for transparency."
