Kathmandu, Dec 29 (RSS): Minister for Communications and Information Technology, Gokul Prasad Banskota has vowed that the framework of a digital Nepal that the government had resolved to would be brought within a month’s time. Opening the 25th annual general meeting of the Federation of Computer Association Nepal (CAN Federation) here today, he said a five-year programme would be formulated based on the framework of digital Nepal for materializing the national goal of prosperity through maximum utilization of technology.
He said the risks and aberrations have equally increased with the growing accessibility and effectiveness of technology and that its relevance would be only when we can take benefit through its proper use. “Only access to technology is not important but what we have achieved through its utilization is. When it teaches skills and leads to production growth in society only then can we consider technology to be successful and being close to human life; however, its misuse and anomalies should be removed,” the Communications and Information Technology Minister opined.
