The devolved function is not fully exercised by the LSGIs. The transferred the departments connected with the 29 subjects are still working in a bureaucratic manner. This study reveals the real reasons behind the poor performance of LSGIs and coming up with a technological solution to overcome the problem through an interactive E-Governance system. Even though 29 subjects are given to the LSGIs, 4 departments are considered in this research due to time constrains.
