The government has proposed to integrate 50 services, including those from central and state governments, with the e-biz portal, Parliament was informed today.
"The e-biz project has started with an objective of providing government services through a single-window portal. In the pilot phase, it is proposed to integrate 50 services comprising 26 central government and 24 state services," Commerce and Industry Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said in a written reply to the Rajya Sabha.
She said that so far, 20 central government services have been integrated with the e-biz portal.
