  • In the intro, mention the FOSS’s journey in India.
  • In the body, mention the advantages of FOSS in terms of cost and transparency and innovation. In the steps mention incentivising adoption, institutionalisation, a repository of ready to use certified tools for government applications etc.
  • Conclude by mentioning that with an IT workforce of more than four million employees and a software industry, we have to harness the biggest promise that FOSS holds — the possibility of collaborative technological innovation.
