Abstract :
E-government is a very complex domain having multi-dimensional aspects. Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) and software piracy issues are directly related to e-government establishment. An analytical study between e-government readiness, education index and software piracy rate was conducted. It was found that e-government readiness was inversely proportional to software piracy rate and directly proportional to the education index.
