Agree that such an office shouldn’t end up being yet another layer of bureaucracy.
Disagree. There are barely any FOSS projects out of India despite the massive consumption, and the massive amounts of tax payer money is spent by governments on procuring proprietary software. A small change there might have multiple good outcomes including tax payer money that’s saved, and money flowing into the local tech/FOSS ecosystem, which in addition may also spawn contextually relevant FOSS.
