"We need to develop some kind of mechanism to check that these projects actually deliver what they promise. The best and most honest feedback wil always come from the users," Chavan said on Thursday at the national e-governance conference in Jaipur. 

"The brutal truth needs to be told. If a project is failing the expectation of the people, then the implementing agency needs to be told that 'Look, this needs to be re-worked'," he added.
