Hi,
You must meet IT sec or other minister to convince them that ODT format
is best for office. Then they put circular that all Gov office must use Open
Office in their Offices. make sure you put RTI or other tools to verify that
no body is purchasing MS office.
We have done similar activity in Delhi. but result are not desirable.
in Delhi, we have a circular for using only openoffice.
also, putting RTI/PIL is also helpful. At the same time, taking police
help for identifying and punishing persons/office which are using
Pirated/illegal copy of MS Office will be helpful.
