Also Try to push something like this
http://www.keionline.org/blogs/2008/12/06/dcos-agreement-on-procurement-in-support-of-interoperability-and-open-standards-emerges-at-3rd-igf-hyderabad/

More tight agreement on Procurement in support of Open standards
based on National (Draft) policy for Open standards for e-governance

we can push Public/Private Institutions & Political parties (elections
are near) to sign this agreement
