E-governance is one of such initiatives, but as discussed by many researchers, the human factors do affect the success or failure of any technological initiatives. Thereby, the present research is focused to identify the human factors which play an important role as hindrances in adaptability of e-governance initiatives in Public Sectors of India so that, by considering those factors in its implementation, the potential benefits may be achieved and good governance may be established. For the purpose, the primary data is collected from working people in the public sector organizations of NCR (National Capital Region) of Delhi, India.
