Pillar: Connectivity
93.8% of gram panchayats in Bapatla are BharatNet service-ready, close to the typical district. 13.4% of women use the internet, behind the typical district. The Aadhaar Enrolment Centre is often the first digital-identity touchpoint on this connectivity base.
76% of registered enterprises are in services while 24% are in manufacturing. Only 2% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. Only 53% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12).
In Bapatla, which ranks 19 of 27 in Andhra Pradesh for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 45.7 out of 100. It trails the national picture on young men using the internet at 41.3%. On women with a bank account at 75.3%, it sits close to the national mark.
What the Aadhaar Enrolment Centre is required to do, who runs it and how to find one are in the Aadhaar Enrolment Centre reference.
