People across the country may soon access their water, electricity and other utility bills online.
The national mission on e-governance in urban local bodies, covering  423 cities across the country, will cost Rs 787 crore and cover services and management functions, including online registration and issue of birth and death certificates, approval of building plans and payment of property tax and other utility bills.
All 35 cities with a population of 10 lakh or more are proposed to be covered in the current financial year. In the next five years, the project is supposed to cover all the 423 cities having a population of one lakh and above.
