ICT comprise various techniques and infrastructure for storage, processing and management of information. These include computers, software, books, personal digital assistants (PDAs), digital and non-digital libraries and different communication channels such as mail and email, radio, television, telephone, mobile phone, pager, instant messaging, internet etc
