 ✅Electronic governance or e-governance can be defined as the usage  of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) by the  government to provide and facilitate government services, exchange  of information, communication transactions and integration of  various stand-alone systems and services.  

🔸 It is the use of technology to perform government activities and  achieve the objectives of governance. 

🔹World Bank explained the E-governance as the use by government  agencies of information technologies (such as Wide Area Networks,  

the Internet, and mobile computing) that can transform relations  with citizens, businesses, and other arms of government.
