Dear All
 
The Maharashtra Police seems to be going in for large scale computerization.  They have issued a
tender notice for 1500 PCs, UPS and modems, with Linux as the OS [tender specification reads:
"Linux operating System – latest version (along with Devnagiri script and Open Office Suite.) with
latest Service Pack (preloaded) license and recovery CD media with every PC and compatible
Antivirus software"]. 
 
The notice is available at
http://www.maharashtra.gov.in/data/tender/document/2003/08/27/20030827164638.pdf.
 
No details of the computerization programme itself seem available, though.
