Combatting and eradicating corruption is the biggest challenge for Modi government. To achieve this, the government regularly takes necessary steps through various initiatives. One of the stepping stone was the introduction of e-assessment scheme by late finance minister Arun Jaitley, during Budget 2018. The scheme was to replace the old concept of manual assessment with complete automated process. The concept of e-assessment is targeted to bring more transparency, less human intervention and thereby curtail corruption.
