Approved in September 2006 under the National e-Governance Plan (NeGP), the Common Services Centre (CSC) program bridges the digital divide by establishing rural connectivity centers, bringing modern e-governance and IT services to villages across India.
Common Services Centres act as crucial access points for delivering Government-to-Citizen (G2C) e-services directly to citizens' doorsteps, creating physical service delivery infrastructure to ensure a transparent, secure mechanism and reduce the need to visit distant government offices.
