MGRM, city-based e-governance firm and Bell ID, an identity card solutions provider headquartered in the Netherlands has entered into a joint venture, for tapping the emerging opportunities in e-governance and identity management verticals in India.
The joint venture will become operational in the next quarter or as soon as necessary formalities are completed, MRGM said in a statement. |

"This is a 50: 50 joint venture, and combines strengths of both MGRM and Bell ID,"
said MGRM group founder K.V.R. Murthy.
While the Rotterdam-based Bell ID is into managing identification programmes across
diverse geographies, MGRM has developed and managed research-based integrated
IT applications in different domains in India.
The central government has proposed a single national ID for Indian citizens to ensure
the efficient delivery of public services, and help government identify illegal immigrants
more easily.
It created a national ID agency - Unique Identification Authority - in February,
earmarking for it an initial corpus of $20 million.
