Digital Governance and Citizen Accountability: A Case Study of India's Aadhaar System

Author(s) Ms. Varnim .
Country India
Abstract This dissertation, “Digital Governance and Citizen Accountability: A Case Study of India’s Aadhaar System,” examines the impact of digital governance on transparency, efficiency, and accountability in India. It focuses on Aadhaar, a major biometric identity initiative, as both a technological advancement and a tool shaping citizen–state relations. While Aadhaar is credited with reducing corruption and improving welfare targeting, it has also sparked debates on privacy, exclusion, surveillance, and accountability. The study aims to present these perspectives objectively, motivated by the growing role of digital governance in policymaking and the need to assess its effects on democratic accountability and social equity. Using secondary sources, including academic research, government reports, legal rulings, and policy documents, the research evaluates Aadhaar’s influence on citizen rights, welfare access, and accountability. The findings are intended to inform ongoing discussions about the challenges and opportunities of digital governance in India. I hope this work will benefit students, scholars, policymakers, and researchers interested in these issues.
