Shidhaa Scrapped: FCS Moves to Microsoft Platform

We are already reading of teh application developed and the issues in the applications, the people of India need food to reach them at the right time. Government needs to ensure that it gets the correct picture through Business Intelligence.Hence the government went through a tender Process & found that the Bid Submitted on Microsoft technologies was 4 times lower that the OSS based bid submitted.
