National Digital Preservation Program

The National Digital Preservation Program is an initiative run by the Indian Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) to improve digital preservation efforts in India as a means to counter rapidly changing technology and digital obsolescence. The program was initially conceived of in 2008 by the Research & Development in IT (R&D in IT) division of MeitY and was further developed in March 24-25, 2009 during an Indo-US Workshop on International Trends in Digital Preservation that was organized by the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) of Pune, India, with sponsorship from Indo-US Science & Technology Forum.
