Pillar: Connectivity
100% of gram panchayats in South Andaman are BharatNet service-ready, close to the typical district. 53.6% of young men use the internet, close to the typical district. The Common Service Centre delivers government services digitally on top of this connectivity.
84% of registered enterprises are in services while 16% are in manufacturing. Only 5% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. 78% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12).
In South Andaman, which ranks 1 of 3 in Andaman and Nicobar Island for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 55 out of 100. It runs ahead of the national picture on women using the internet at 41.2% and women's freedom of movement at 68.9%.
What the Common Service Centre (CSC) is required to do, who runs it and how to find one are in the Common Service Centre (CSC) reference.
