Hello everyone.

Today our topic is Digital India: Whom does it benefit?

Well, I must say that this question carries a two-way answer to it.

First of the answers being the citizens being smart or should I say technologically advanced. Digitalization is always a must-do check for any country as it brings ease to all the paperwork and the diresome workhours of the mortal race. Like they say in the advertisements, you can literally have your own bank at your fingertips. Now, who won't love to skip queues in the bank? Also keeping track of the money online has also proved to be a significantly helpful advantage of digitalization.

Students are also benefitted from the digital India campaign, as they can have their class at their ease. They need to put up their uniform and sit in their bus to go to their respective institutions. What all they need is a tab or laptop, with a good internet connection and you are good to go.

But with all this ease and less effort, frauds are also making their way in going up in the list of beneficiaries. While we still were in our old days, a lot were being scammed by the false jackpots and lotteries. With all our activities being digitalized, they also are getting an edge to carry out such activities.

Getting digitalized is the best step for advancement but with big gifts, bug commitments are also required to keep those gifts intact.

Getting people to be aware of their options and doing is a must-do for the nation. People do need to be taught the right way to use the applications and be aware of fraudulent messages.

Digitalization has played an important role in the upliftment and progress of our society.

Introducing digital technology has helped us reach out to the people living in the remotest parts of India and improve their quality of living.

It has helped overcome the barrier of distance and has made seeking knowledge, expressing opinions, and working efficiently much easier.

The role of digitalization in amplifying citizens' voices and maintaining democracy is quite notable.

During this pandemic, digitalization has proved to be hoped by being the only way of connection during isolation. It has to be a platform through which we can support and help the needy.

Thus, digitalization has benefited each and every citizen of our country and is a strong pillar in the development of our country.

Digital India is a necessity. India should be digital to match with other countries.

Digitalization gives more transparency and it also makes work easy, for example before we had to go to the bank for money transaction now we can transfer money from our home this saves time and is easy to use. Digitalization will help India to grow.

Digital India is a very good initiative taken by the Government and equally acceptance of our Citizens. To dream of 10 Trillion economies, it will really helpful. There is various Govt scheme which available through a digital medium. A lot of apps are there to guide farmers, Education app like Bijus, Study IQ are contributing more in the educational sector. Besides that, it makes our life easy. New entrepreneurs are also emerging in the digital world. Digital payments curb Corruption and help in Currency flow. The future of currency will be Digital currency.

So as India is the hub of It we have to be Digital side by side we have to make collaborate with Japan and Taiwan so that we can equally work on Hardware.

Hi ,

It's a great topic to discuss nowadays as we are shifting from the traditional world to the digital world. Earlier we people used to cash but now we have seen many people have shifted towards digital services. They used to do every transactions through net banking, UPI or Debit/Credit Card.

If I talk about the merits and demerits of Digital services:
Merits:.

1. Easy to access for the people who are literate.
2. No need of carrying cash result into mitigating cash theft.
3. Record of every transaction.
4. No need to stand in a queue for any application form in banks, post offices, or any government offices.

Demerits:

1. A person who is literate can only take the advantage of Digital products.
2. It will take many years to move this into rural India. This is the biggest disadvantage of Digital services. As we all know 60-65% of people lives in rural India.
3. Connectivity is also a problem in India especially in rural and Semi-urban places.

Now move to whom does it benefit:

1. Currently pandemic is going on, Digital services play an important role in the whole world in terms of online shopping which includes grocery, veggies, fruits and other essentials, Meetings on various software, taking a loan or any banking services, Online education, consultation with a doctor etc.

2. People are doing their businesses online which will result in GDP growth if we see from a macro perspective.

Hello everyone,

This is Rahul and today's topic is - Digital India (whom does it benefit?).

Digital India is one of the most powerful way to connect anyone. Everything is digitalization in India is make happier from everyone. It is easy to use and get secure but you have to protect to the scammers. Digital India make the work very efficient and saves the lots of time If you have to pay some bills you stand on huge queues to pay bills. Online payments like phone pay, Paytm, Google pay they get very secure payments but some people has still to think these payments are not secure.

In covid19, the current situation the digital India makes really helpful every work is done by home and still it was working. Online education is really was very helpful for every student in pandemic. In lockdown there are many people are getting digital and later on it teaches to other people to get digital. At last I would to say that if you know about digital technology then you must to teach them or guide them those who are not using this technology because day by day everything is getting to be digital and they are really helpful.
