To successfully implement e-governance, the country must think about 'mobiles first' and give importance to m-governance (or mobile governance), said Prime Minister Narendra Modi Friday.

Addressing the 18th National Conference on e-Governance through Twitter, Modi said: "I urge you to explore ways to provide as many services as possible through mobiles. Let us bring the world into our mobile phones!"

"While we look at e-Governance, let us think about 'mobile first' and thus give importance to m-Governance (mobile governance)," he added in another tweet.
