Shocking: PM media cell Using GMail Account

Earlier today I came across this news playing on GEO television network where they showed an email sent from PM cell. The address was mentioned as pmmediaoffice [at] gmail.com.
Went into shock and awe. The government official channel is using GMAIL account. What is going on here? Thought it was some kinda mistake so I just googled the email address and I found the exact email address. Exact Match!!.

• When we have all the official IT infrastructure to help the cause then why do they use the GMail account?
• When we have Electronic Government Directorate to enhance the efficiency of the government, then why do we have GMail account for official purpose?
• When we have official email addresses backed by Government own IT infrastructure, then why do we keep our mails on public servers?
• When there is petty amount of tax payers money going to the pockets of providers of securing government communication, then why do we rely on freely available email address?
