Arogya Setu’s website also states that the app was developed by NIC and the ministry. A person named Saurav Das had said in his complaint that the concerned authorities – NIC, National e-Governance Division (NeGD), and Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology – failed to provide information about who designed the Arogya Setu App. Das said that RTI was filed for NIC, stating that it does not contain information related to the creation of the app, which is very surprising for the developer of the app.
