E-Governance implementation in India has certain pitfalls. In this paper, we have studied the International e-Governance Portals and traced the pitfalls in our Indian e-Governance system. As per well defined practices we have proposed solutions for improving those pitfalls and implementing it in the best of interest of Citizens of India and our Country at par. In EGovernance we develop, deploy and enforce the policies, laws and regulations which are essential to support the functioning of Knowledge based Society. E-Governance comprehensively includes a series of necessary steps for government agencies to develop, administer and ensure successful implementation of e-government services to the public at large. E-government will always play an important role now and in the future. This paper is an effort to study the portals of five countries based on United Nations E-government Survey rankings of 2012. India stands at 125th place as per the survey while Republic of Korea UK, USA and Singapore are amongst top 10. This paper is an effort to compare the E-governance services in India to the best defined practices. Study shows that India is lacking due to low rate of awareness because of Illiteracy. It is required to develop a proper database of all the citizens and provide an efficient and effective infrastructure for accessing the e-governance websites. Social acceptability of e-governance is very important not only in urban areas but in rural areas as well.
