About



The National Urban Digital Mission (NUDM) was launched by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) in February 2021 to support digitalisation of urban citizen services through shared digital infrastructure.

One of the key deliverables under NUDM is creation/ adoption of Standards - Guidelines and Specifications for municipal digital governance, to promote data usage, data driven governance and to enable interoperability (foundational, structural and semantic) of data, processes and systems in ULBs, in a secure manner. These Standards are prepared in consultation with various stakeholders comprising government agencies, academia, industry, citizen community, practitioners etc and provide a holistic approach to solve the pressing issue of data inconsistency.

Released Standards

The following 06 Standards - Guidelines and Specifications have been released by MoHUA and BIS in 2021 and 2022 respectively.

Purpose

Under NUDM, the need for training of State/UTs on the published Standards and regular updation of Standards is identified with an aim to necessitate the smooth implementation and adoption of Standards. The National Institute of Urban Affairs (NIUA) is organising Workshops on Standards- Guidelines and Specifications prepared in collaboration with Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and published by Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) in various regional clusters of India.

The purpose of the workshop is to increase knowledge of published NUDM standards, facilitate direct discussion with domain experts on the Standards and to understand the adoption process for facilitating a robust solution for faster delivery of citizen centric services.
