ing Andhra Pradesh - Role of e- Governance, Electronics and IT’ for the development of the ICT Industry in the State. The blueprint envis-ages a large number of conducive policies and simple but effective frameworks being put in place. It has laid out a vision to “develop AP as an Innovation Society of global repute, with a focus on enhancing the Quality of Life of its citizens, through high-quality Education and Healthcare, increased productivity in Agricul-ture and allied activities, creation of Employ-ment by promoting Electronics and IT, and above all, by providing ‘‘Good Governance.”
