Common Service Center (CSC) G2C Services: Your Gateway to Government Benefits
The Common Service Centers (CSCs) serve as vital access points for Government-to-Citizen (G2C) services across India, making it easier for rural and urban populations to access essential government benefits and schemes. Through the dedicated efforts of Village Level Entrepreneurs (VLEs), CSCs bridge the digital divide and bring governance closer to the people.
Most of these services are accessed by the VLEs through their Digital Seva Portal login. While individual public-facing URLs for every specific CSC-delivered G2C service might not always be available, the VLE acts as the facilitator, connecting citizens to these online government platforms. Below is a categorized list of key G2C services offered by CSCs, along with the primary portals where these services are facilitated.
