Governance & Welfare Delivery   |   Core Project   |   Multi-state (proven at scale in Chhattisgarh)

An open-source DPI facilitating consent-based data exchange across departments for improved welfare delivery and transparency.

Overview

IPeG enables secure, consent-based sharing of data across government departments to improve public service delivery. By integrating systems such as Aadhaar and the Public Distribution System, it supports centralised social registries for accurate beneficiary identification and efficient Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) implementation.

Objectives

Key Features

Use Cases

Building a single, de-duplicated social registry from multiple department databases to identify eligible DBT beneficiaries accurately.

Cross-verifying ration-card (PDS) and Aadhaar data to reduce leakage and duplication in welfare schemes.

Real-time dashboards for state departments to track scheme coverage and service delivery gaps.

Citizen-facing services (e.g., registration/verification) built on the shared registry via the public IPeG Register portal.

Data / Datasets Available

Beneficiary and household registry data, PDS ration data, and scheme-enrolment data integrated at the state level; access is department- and role-based, with a citizen-facing registry/verification interface publicly reachable via the Chhattisgarh IPeG portal.

Our Role

CDPG designed and built the open-source Data eXchange framework underpinning IPeG, and continues to support its expansion across sectors and states.

Impact

Proven at scale in Chhattisgarh; supports improved DBT implementation, transparency, and strengthened social safety nets.
