Prime Minister Narendra Modi expanded Gujarat's e-Gram Vishwagram model into the national Digital India Mission after serving as the state's chief minister. Modi launched the original program on Jan. 23, 2009, connecting more than 13,000 village panchayats through broadband infrastructure to deliver government services digitally. The initiative enabled residents to access 321 types of documents electronically, and officials report that the system transformed rural service delivery across Gujarat.

Modi introduced the Digital India Mission on July 1, 2015, aiming to extend digital connectivity to remote areas nationwide. The campaign increased internet users to more than 1 billion people over the past decade, with 420 million accessing services from rural locations. Mobile phone subscriptions surpassed 1.17 billion, while authorities established more than 581,000 Common Service Centres across the country. The program enabled direct benefit transfers, banking services, and online transactions, strengthening the digital economy while empowering citizens.
