E-gov projects to reduce corruption and improve entrepreneurship | ZDNet: "In a country where corruption is an accepted norm, e-governance projects are a hope that can change how things operate. One such attempt is by the Passport department of the government of India. Early this year, the Chief Passport Officer Muktesh Kumar Pardeshi talked about an enforcing online payments for Passports. The initiative will slowly reduce the the number of a people paying "agents" hoping that it will get them a passport due to the agents' relationship within the Passport offices."
