What is the National e-Vidhan Application (NeVA) ?

The National e-Vidhan Application (NeVA) is a transformative digital initiative launched by the Government of India to modernize legislative processes nationwide. Spearheaded by the Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs and developed by the National Informatics Centre (NIC), NeVA aims to make legislative assemblies paperless, efficient, and more transparent.

🧩 What is NeVA?

NeVA is a cloud-based, workflow-driven platform hosted on NIC’s MeghRaj cloud infrastructure. It is designed to digitize and streamline the functioning of legislative bodies, enabling them to conduct all proceedings electronically. The platform is member-centric and device-neutral, meaning legislators can access it via smartphones, tablets, or desktops.
