The Government uses e-mail as a major mode of communication. These
communications include Government of India (GoI) data that travel as part
of mail transactions between users located both within the country and
outside. The Government of India has recently approved the E-mail policy

Implementing Agency (IA) for the GoI e-mail service shall be National
Informatics Centre (NIC), under the Department of Electronics and
Information Technology (DeitY), Ministry of Communications and Information
Technology. The objective of this policy is to ensure secure access and
usage of Government of India e-mail services by its users. All services
