In some respects, YES . In some other respects, NOT YET
Context :
New E-enabled Parliament , assemblies to Work on Unified Digital Infra / ET / 14 May 2022
Extract :
When lawmakers move into the brand new Parliament building in the national capital, they’re likely to be given touchscreen tablets that will
# facilitate voting on matters of national importance,
# help with speeches, notices, submissions and
# laying of papers and reports
The move is a part of the government’s larger plan to bring the nation’s 37 state legislatures-31 Assemblies and 6 Councils-on to a single digital platform which will have enabling provisions for the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha.
A single, process-based, end-to-end digital platform called National e-Vidhan Application (NeVA) has been developed for the parliamentary affairs ministry.
An official mentioned the software program will bring “synergy in the working and dissemination of information by all legislatures…” on the only platform, breaking silos.
“All legislatures are proposed to be linked together so that on one platform, the public at large can see what is happening in all 39 legislative houses across the country,” he said
Once implemented , the new e-platform will enable members to ,
# seek divisions whenever they want, and also
# cast their votes digitally from anywhere within the Houses
While members will be able to make submissions digitally, notices can be sent anytime from anywhere, approved and processed on-line in the legislature secretariats.
A touchscreen device will be provided to every member inside the House that will contain,
# list of businesses ,
# papers to be laid,
# bills consideration and passing,
# committee reports,
# questions and answers,
# bulletins,
# synopsis of proceedings,
# digital library,
# notices
# members directory,
# visual display of House proceedings.
The platform has been developed to ensure members can find everything they need in the House on one platform–their notices, replies, notifications, constitution of committee, agenda, minutes, room booking, to preparation of report, and also enable them to talk to their aides and secretaries,
MY TAKE :
Ø Congratulations, Shri Rajeev Chandrasekharji …………………………. ( 23 Apr 2022 )

Dear Shri Chandrasekharji,
Congratulations on this great initiative to launch DIGITAL SANSAD , with the
explicit objective to BRING MPs and CITIZEN together by “ covering the entire
spectrum of functioning of the Indian Parliament “
In this context, I urge you to examine my following suggestions ( to view details, CLICK HERE ):
[ A ]…… Platform
[ B ]….. Citizen Feedback
A citizen should be able to send ( email / sms / whatsapp ) any message to any MP .
These messages can only be a question or a constructive comment ( AI software must weed-out any
abusive messages )
You may want to consider the following U / I : Influence Policy Makers
Source-code for this, can be freely downloaded from : B2BmessageBlaster.com
[ C ] MP “ Janam Kundli “
[ D ] Performance of MPs in Parliament
[ E ] “ Work from Anywhere “ for MPs
With Virtual Parliament sessions, you can do following :
Ø Online broadcast of Virtual Session through a Mobile App ( LokRaj ? )
Ø Receive Questions / Answers / Notices , online ( as being done already )
Ø Decide ( and control ), WHO will speak , WHEN and for HOW LONG .
Ø Display these “ Speaking Schedules “ on the Mobile App with a provision for the viewers to cast their
“ Ratings “ online / instantly , as each speaker delivers his / her speech
Dynamically display “ No of Raters “ and “ Rating Score ( 1 to 5 ) “ .
Such an “ Instant Feedback “ will dramatically improve , not only the behaviour of each Member
of
Ø Turn-off the member’s mike if he refuses to stop or starts shouting / abusing
Ø No question of anyone speaking “out of turn “ or rushing to the well of the house !
Ø Bar unruly members from attending a VIRTUAL SESSION
Ø Display ( as in case of Augmented Reality – AR ), following record of an MP as he is speaking :
# Attendance percentage / Punctuality
# No of questions asked
# Number of minutes spoken during the session
Ø Just before the voting starts on any Bill , enable the Members of Parliament to receive “ Instructions (
really , feedback from citizen who voted for him / her ) “, as to how voters want him to vote ( “for “ or
“against “ the bill ) , as outlined at :
VotersWill …………………………………. [ 03 Nov 2018 ]
Ø Enable every Member to receive Online Feedback whether his overall performance is so bad that the
citizen who voted for him , now want him “ Re- called “ , as described at :
ROMP - A Panacea ? ……………….[ 06 Aug 2015 ]
