Government portal data.gov.in, which will be used to share official data
with the public, is set to be fully functional soon.
Now in beta or testing phase, the site has technically gone “beyond it,”
and full-fledged data uploading could begin a couple of weeks after an
official workshop scheduled for next month, CEO of the National Spatial
Data Infrastructure R. Siva Kumar told *The Hindu*.
With this, India joins the rank of a growing number of nations that plan to
use open data as a tool to promote transparency and efficiency in
government.
