Swaraj - "Swa" here is Microsoft and "raj" should be Government.
Even with all the pomp and gaiety that followed the new *radical* IT Policy of the Government, the following were the papers forwarded to the XIV Science Congress from IKM (Information Kerala Mission aliter Information of Kerala for Microsoft).
The papers are http://220.227.128.112/downloads/ikm/CaseStudy20060622.pdf http://220.227.128.112/downloads/ikm/Sevana.pdf http://220.227.128.112/downloads/ikm/Sulekha.pdf
This shows the potency of Microsoft even as it reveals the impotency and helplessness of the IT Department in our State. CK Raju Thrissur

NEW DELHI: The government on Tuesday launched an integrated software application for managing panchayati raj system in the country.
The application titled SWARAJ was launched by the Union Minister for Panchayati Raj Mani Shankar Aiyar at the Microsoft - Government Leadership Summit in the capital on Tuesday. .... This application would help overcome the problems of multiple applications and absence of proper Management Information Systems (MIS), thus making the process of technological implementation in rural area easier and more transparent. ...
What is meant by Swaraj?!!!!
