Digital India is a major step towards saying bye bye to the long lines and getting information in hands just a click away. This is a good way of being informed and hence eradicates the mediator who are often required to be bribed in order to get information. The three major goals of digitalization of India include:

1) Development of a secured and stable online infrastructure.
2) Delivering government services digitally.
3) Achieving universal digital literacy.

Henceforth, the following communities will benefit from digitalization:

- The people living in rural areas will get internet connectivity and along with training which can help them to keep updated with monsoon forecast, government policies, etc.

- People living in crowded cities where they have to wait in long lines to get their work done.

- Indian government because of the access to online free resources that can help people establish business and learn new things ultimately catalysing economic growth.

- MNC's and other companies who sell their product through online shopping sites like Amazon.

Hence, digitalisation is a great step toward the development of modern India.

It is going to benefit everyone be it students, elders or anyone. It is going to be verg helpful for the rural people as they would be able to easily get access to govt services digitally. But there are many challenges that might hinder the success of digital India. As most of the Indian population belongs to rural areas it is very difficult to provide them the facilities due the fact that they are not use to technology or gadgets. Moreover many are illiterate so it becomes even more difficult. Lack of internet connectivity further add to their adversity. But many companies have come forward like facebook and google in helping setting up of broadband connections across the Indian villages.

Digital India is a word which gets popular during NDA ruled government. It becomes famous during Demonetisation and people started moving toward the Digital payment through Bhim app, google pay app, Paytm etc digital platform. As it is very much needed because to Collect the data of citizens in written form on paper gets very cumbersome and hectic. Each and every Work in the government offices becomes online and people get relief to visit government offices to Complete their legal work. In some states of India, police has started filling FIR on a digital platform. There are many examples exist in a real world where peoples have benefitted because of digitisation.

Digital India has been slowly and steadily developing and becoming the part of our system. It has been of great benefit to increase the transparency of the process. It has benefited the masses which helped them gain access to all the bundle of knowledge at a click of a button. And also helped in ease of transactions between merchants. The digital technology is used properly can really be of great benefit to the entire nation.

Digital India is a perfect step towards efficient generation of future India. Digital is the next revolution in world map. Anyone who doesn't participate in this transformation will be left behind in both economic and social sphere. Today high speed internet is cheap and vastly available. Using digital gadgets along with internet connectivity makes people's lives more efficient and lean. Same goes for the businesses. Using digital platforms in business will always yield higher margin.

Though Digital India is important but this digitisation process will face headwinds because of the fact that the maximum portion of India population lives in rural areas where people are not accustomed with these digital gadgets and also unavailability of internet.

But said that we cannot stop India from moving forward and achieving high GDP growth using digitisation as one of the tools. Once the urban population gets updated with the digital methods then the rural India will follow them as well in future.

Digital India is a big step taken by our government towards a modern India where everything is available for people to gain information about rules, law, various programs of government to benefit themselves.

In this modern era of India where up to more extent digitalisation has been done for example online payment, ATM, voting machines, RTI information which helps people a lot in saving time, but this is profitable for cities areas, developed village where people know the use of the internet, tab, mobile, computer.

There is no mean of such things for people having no knowledge of computer, smartphone, also there is no mean of such things where there is no internet connection.

In one side where digitalisation makes life easier, in other sides, it enhances unemployment also, after mobile phone there is no more need of postman etc.

So, to make the use of digital gadgets there must be a limit in the government sector which does not unemployment so much.

Digital India benefits for all over India. But there is also some villages where people are not aware of this term. Digital India make people easier to transmit their thoughts, helps in many other purposes like payment, shopping, traveling etc. In fact many people getting new things, gain knowledge, enhance skills through smartphones.

I think Digital India is beneficial for the overall development of the country. Due to cashless payments corruptions has been restricted. Also, the bills which were paid offline by means of paper are now cashless without paper and cashless payments facilities are almost available everywhere. In short, it is beneficial for each & every person in the a country.
