Ii my opinion, digital India is beneficial for all. With the help of paytm app, we can transfer money with in second. It saves time like anyone can pay bill such as electricity bill or recharge of mobile phones. It is helpful to control Curruption. We can also book tickets for movies, travels easily etc.

In my point of view, digital India is a good initiative taken by the Modi government, but still, it is not reachable to every reason of country. In our country, many schemes were launched but these schemes not implemented at the basic level, so the government should do some work towards awareness of digitalisation among people of our country so that they can use and get benefited by this scheme.

As the topic name, digital India is beneficial all. Digital means connecting the things with by using the internet. It beneficial by following ways.
1. We don't have a stand in line for banking work.
2. Students can easily apply for any courses.
3. We can also book the tickets for movies, travels easily. Etc.
But I think digital India is more beneficial for the urban area rather than rural area. Because nowadays in a rural area all people use the internet but they don't know how to use it for reducing their work. So the government should manage some workshop for this people so that they can get proper knowledge about digital India.

I think digital India is a great initiative taken by our government. The name digital India itself describe digitalistion of India. There are many benefits of digitalization such as.
It helps in transfer of money without going to the bank, students can learn from their home by watching educational videos, it saves time like anyone can pay bill such as electricity bill or recharge of mobile phones, corruption can be controlled etc. It helps farmers in getting subsidiaries.
It also saves the resources being used for printing the new currency notes.
The main disadvantage of the digitalization is Cyber fraud.

Firstly, as the name suggests, digital India refers to connecting the India digitally by means of internet. It is due to this concept there has been a great change in the lifestyle of majority of people, saving their both money and time.
It can be observed that earlier people had to stand for hours in queues to do all the transactions related to banks, bills etc. , but due the encouragement of cashless transactions now a days, which is a gift of digital India concept, we are just a click away from these transactions saving both our time and energy. Along with this, it has also helped students a lot, due to online education portals like SWAYAM the students can acess the course they are interested in with just a click. Another advantage of digitization in India is the reach of common people to the various e-commerce sites providing them a variety of deals thus eliminating the headache of going to market for every small cause.
But there's still some drawbacks of this concept, many people who are not well aware are becoming a victim of frauds and other cyber crimes incidents. Thus the government need to organize welfare programs to aware the people of such things to gain the full trust of people towards digitizing India and make it completely successful.

Hello everyone,
I think digital India has not benefitted anyone till now. The objectives of digital India programme are very good and beneficiary for nations development but the implementation was not done properly.
One of the main hurdles is digital literacy. Although the government had started many digital literacy programmes, they were not as successful as expected.
Next big hurdle is network connectivity. Even in this case government had started Bharat net programme in order to provide a high-speed broadband connection across all gram panchayats in India, the progress of this programme is proceeding at a very slow speed.
Lastly, I would like to say that, ONLY With proper implementation of a digital India programme, can we see digitalis action in our country.

Hello everyone,
I think the digital India initiative is a great initiative taken by my government. Digital India not only focuses upon bank transaction but also it focuses upon some important apects like it helped students for study through SWAYAM app. It helped students to safe guard their marksheets n documents in digilocker, like cbse helped students of Kerla flood victims. Digital India helped people to get access to net connectivity through which they can transact money, they can book tickets, etc. Due to digital India initiative there will be transperacy in every field like gas subsidy direct comes in account, NETA app through which politicians can be rated. Like wise there are more applications that supports digital Indi, but to make it completely helpful we all need to be aware of using it for good work.

Yes, it's beneficial but not totally we all are well known about cosmos bank cybercrime. India is not fully developed country it is developing country so we can't fully implement digitalization first of all India should become independent in cyber security and not everyone but at least one person in the family should have at least basic knowledge about the what is actually digitalization.

Digital India itself describes Digitizing India, which means it is helpful to the whole India.
Firstly, It reduces the resources wasted on printing money as papers and coins.
Secondly, every citizen of India will be able to access his or her bank details without going miles far. So from which they can assure that there assets are safe. This would be not so much difficult because everyone one now a days uses a smart phone so it would be easy for every one if they get a pure knowledge about this concept.
And lastly, it will be the most easy way to reduce the conflicts happening on money.
