IGoSA — A novel framework for analysis of and facilitating government schemes

Progress in the field of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has benefited the e-Governance solutions with higher efficiency and better accountability. In this paper we have identified a domain of government which focuses on welfare schemes for the weaker sections of the society. For the better acceptability of the schemes, information sharing and analysis of the scheme related information is crucial. Bearing this in mind, we propose an e-Governance model, named as Intelligent Government Scheme Advisor (IGoSA), to facilitate as a decision support system with scheme based analysis for the citizens and government agencies. The main goal is to use the available information and experience present with government agencies and feedback from public to build more successful schemes by taking the help of machine learning techniques and emerging data management solutions.
