The national e-governance conference jointly organized by the department of administrative reforms and public grievances (DARPG) and department of information technology (DIT) will be held on February 10-11, 2011.

This year government of Maharashtra is the state partner and the conference will be organized at Aurangabad.

This will be 14th such conference to be organized by government of India (GOI) and it is for the first time that the conference will be held outside a state capital. Last year the state government of Rajasthan was the state partner and the conference was held in Jaipur.

The department also publishes a compendium as part of the conference by conducting a competition on best paper. The main theme for paper contest this year is, "Rural e-Service Delivery: Status & Challenges"
