Common Service Centers (CSCs) are a revolutionary initiative aimed at bridging the digital divide and bringing essential government services to the doorstep of every citizen. CSCs, operated by Village Level Entrepreneurs (VLEs), act as one-stop-shops for a wide range of services, including issuance of certificates, licenses, and other government-related documents. This digitalization effort ensures ease of access and efficiency, empowering individuals with convenient and hassle-free experiences.

The unique feature of CSCs lies in their widespread accessibility, with the ambitious goal of establishing at least one center in each of the 2.5 lakh Gram Panchayats across India. This extensive network ensures that even the most remote areas benefit from digital inclusion. By leveraging the capabilities of VLEs, CSCs provide a vital link between the government and the citizens, promoting transparency, accountability, and citizen empowerment.
