Google and the Union Government of India have together initiated a hunt for the best mobile developer in India. The participants will be asked to create a mobile application for Prime Minister's Office. The new government has been very vocal and tries to engage the people and are firm believers of democracy. They work for the people and hence work on suggestions made by its people. Rail budget and Union budget are proof of this. The government took ideas of citizens and used them in their respective budgets.
MyGov is a web portal for government websites. They are responsible for the competition of PMO mobile app. The contest requires that the participants must be citizens of India. There are three levels in this app contest.
First - Submission of ideas
Second - Development of wire frames
Third - Application Creation
The last date to submit your ideas is 12 March. The dates for the next phases will be disclosed as the competition proceeds. Google on its website has listed key points of the three phases and has agreed to sponsor very cheerfully. The participants are asked to submit ideas based on what they think is important to be shown on PMO mobile app. Citizens are also allowed to vote the best ideas. In the second phase the contestants will be asked to submit their wireframes and present according to the blueprints. After submitting your designs top ten will be chosen for next stage. The final phase is the development stage. In this stage actual creation of application will be done. The committee will be created comprising the jury and Google engineers who will train and mentor the finalists for PMO mobile app.
Now let's move on to the part of prize distribution. The ideas whose are most voted and selected will be gifted an Android One device and a certificate of appreciation from the board. The five final teams will get a golden chance to be taught by Google's own engineers on subjects of app development. The winning team takes it all. They will travel to US on a sponsored trip to interact with the Google Developers Team.
