ICT Enabled Public Distribution System for Developing Countries

Some Developing countries are facing severe problems now days which are hindering their speed of development and future prospects, Unrest in citizens or pubic institution due to corruption, less accountability and transparency government process. One of the burning problems is conventional Inefficient Public Distribution System and Ineffective Public Policy Implementation due to absence or ineffective feedback mechanism. Conventional PDS mechanism is viewed as linear transmission systems of benefits delivery. These PDS are top-down and hence struggle with quickly adapting to market dynamics and globalization. In this paper Prospect for social innovation with ICT emerges at the dynamic intersection of informal and conventional PDS and top down approach of services and goods delivery of the systems in the developing world. With the demographic changes developing countries are experiencing so it is time to utilize the ICT tools and mechanism to improve conventional PDS systems with model which is free from the severe loopholes like, leakage, unaccountability, transparency and feedback from bottom to top in timely manner and enhancing coverage of benefits in lower level of the population. New solutions needs to utilize Potential of ICT education in three ways: to increase ease of access and relevance of material through its integration into the PDS , leakage and introduce a feedback loop that enables players at all levels of the PDS and System itself to actively contribute to the design of the system. In this paper we are proposing ICT enabled Public distribution system model which can be implemented with the already existing PDS. Two Models on platform of ICT are proposed or developing countries ready having ICT enabled Identification of citizens and countries not having unique identification platform based on ICT. With the help of models, Paper is providing very effective way of benefit transfer and feedback mechanism to the problem of PDS in developing countries. This can be easily implemented if country is having exposure in ICT countries like India, Brazil, South Africa and Mexico.
