Answer 1

Answer:

The lines from the passage "Oh, e-government will never work in India" and "We are so poor and we don't have computers" show that there is a notion that e-governance is not possible in India because of the low number of people with computers. The idea is that if people do not have computers, they won't be able to use the internet to complete their government related tasks online. The question here is about how to help people finish these tasks online and spread the concept of e-governance when not many people have computers. The lines "Many are still skeptical of the real impact because so few Indians have computers" and "The answer lies in interactive c-cable TV and in Internet kiosks" answer this question. They say that even though people feel that e-governance may not be possible in India, cable TV and internet kiosks can take care of that issue by helping people without computers access the internet. Another line from the given passage "By 2005, most cable homes will have access to the Internet from many of the 700,000 local STD/PCO booths" talks about how the internet is going to be available to more homes across India in the coming future. If the internet is available to more people, more of them will start using it to finish their everyday tasks online without having to go to government offices.
