"To realise the Government's Digital India vision, we are collaborating with MyGov to develop a mobile app for the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) through a contest. With this we wish to support the Government's agenda and provide every citizen access to the PM's office through a mobile device," Chetan Krishnaswamy, country head - public policy at Google India said.

"Through the PMO app contest we wish to use technology effectively to encourage innovation, aspiration and enhance connectivity. We want to provide every citizen access to the PMO through a mobile device," Gaurav Dwivedi, chief executive officer, MyGov said.

"And since this is an app for the people, we are inviting people to submit ideas on the features they would like to see in their PMO's mobile app," he added.
