UMANG

UMANG, short for Unified Mobile Application for New-age Governance, is a mobile application developed as part of the Digital India initiative led by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) of the Government of India. The app was created in collaboration with the National e-Governance Division and was officially launched in November 2017 by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the Global Conference on Cyberspace held in New Delhi. At the time of its launch, UMANG offered 162 services from 33 state and central government departments across four states. The app is designed to provide citizens with easy access to a wide range of government services, including payment processing, registration, information search, and application submissions. It supports 23 Indian languages, making it accessible to a broad population, and is available on both Android and iOS platforms. UMANG aims to make government services available online and around the clock, reflecting the broader goals of the Digital India initiative to modernize public service delivery. It is mentioned alongside other digital governance tools such as Aarogya Setu, BharatNet, T App Folio, and CoWIN as related initiatives under India's digital transformation efforts.
