Good Morning to one and all.

Now the given topic is :"Digital India, whom does it benefit".

According to my view, the idea of digital India has changed many lives in rural and urban areas ahead. Generally, we can determine the word digital India means in a symbolic and right way of doing things. Each and every aspect is going in smooth and secure side of bright things. It is helpful not only for the youngsters but also for the adults. So many of them don't even know how to use the computer but today everything is going on digital manner. We can sit comfortably in one place and we can able to book the flight tickets, movie tickets, bus tickets, we can take doctor appointment and also we can go through our own transactions at home by sitting in front of a smartphone or personal computer. For education purpose, digital India is providing lots of benefits for the students who are not having the facility to get the study. It is providing the best ideas for the people who are facing the problem of unemployment. Nobody is facing the problem with digital India. All are loving it and the people want to use every transaction in a digital way which is safe and secure.

Hello everyone, according to my point of view, like a coin has both sides in the same manner everything thing has both merit and demerit. Now talking about digital India, first of all in this point of the stage we just can't imagine our lives without digitalization. In this pandemic situation, the new emerging technologies have helped a lot in many sectors. Studies are not getting hampered (has not come to complete halt) to some extent because of this, imagining ourselves 10 years back with such pandemic makes us feel so uneasy and discomfort. We could spend our time months after months seating at home just by using social media platforms with is a gift of this digitalization. This digitalization has helped a lot in banking, travelling food, grocery and just everywhere. It is hard to find any such place where you don't find them so there is no point of benefitting a few, it is a boon for all Indian citizens from a farmer to a doctor or astronauts.

But as said earlier everything is accompanied with its demerit too. Because of this digitalization piracy, conspiracy, malpractice, and cheating have extended to great heights which are a great cause of worry.

I hope all are doing well.

As per my thinking, all people must know the word "Digitalization" & at least one person in a family has to know the process of digitalization like online payment through different applications such as (phonepay, Google pay, Paytm). Online education (zoom, Byzus, gradeup. ) , online shopping (Amazon, Flipkart. ) & online marketing and many more. We all know about current situations at any place in our world through the news applications & some social media apps like Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, WhatsApp etc. I am very thankful to Google, I think it is a very helpful app for all. Nowadays digital processing is very useful in this COVID-19 pandemic situation, due to this situation many people know the value of digitalization. These all come under merits.

We all know that everything has merits and demerits. Coming to demerits, some people don't know any idea about the word digital due to lack of education and knowledge. The main problem is a poor network in some areas.

Finally, I think that digitalization having huge merits and low demerits.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GIVING THIS WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY TO ME.

Good morning to one and all!

In today's life, we are enjoying the development of technology. It is not increasing day to day life, for every single minute we are getting advanced features & techniques. As our prime minister, Mr. Narendra Modi has implemented "digital India" mission we all are influenced by him and considered it as one of the parts in our lives. We are believing that as our responsibility to get updated for every new thing. Digital India to whom does it benefit is simply a silly question why because it is one of the reasons for peaceful & happy life to those who are using the technology in the right way. From morning onwards till we go to bed we are almost trying to finish the work through online bases like paying bills, purchasing the things, groceries, online classes, doctor's appointments, tickets booking etc. as it is easy & a simple way to lead our lives. In olden days to lead a simple life a person, essential needs are food, water & shelter. But today an extra feature has added to it that is "INTERNET". Based on our usage there will be advantages as well as disadvantages. So, use technology based on your interest.

Digital India is one of those steps which gives a new look of India it changes the mindset of all other countries peoples who looks India as a poor, no technical skill in Indian people. First of all, in today's era practical knowledge is more important than theoretical knowledge. Digital India makes easy for us where we can learn a lot of online courses as for example HP training program, this training programs we can learn a lot of things like how to become a social entrepreneur, how to start a business etc. The best thing about this program that is it is free of cost and 38 countries people have joined this program.

Now, I came to the second benefit of digital India program i.e It makes transparency in government, it's a good step for removing corruption. The third thing that is it saves our time because we can book online tickets for train, bus, flight etc we needn't stands in line. The fourth thing that is if people has a technical degree or knowledge he can survive easily anywhere he needn't beg him from others.

In last decades, IIT is recognized as a top institute in all over the world now it's time for ITI and DIPLOMA make a name in the world.

Digital India prog was accepted on 20th Aug 2014 and was launched by PM Narendra Modi on 1st July 2015.

Definately It was launched so that the common people as well as people living in villages should get benifited from Digital India initiative.

1) One of the main initiative was National optic fiber network to connect to connect 2. 5 lakh gram panchayat through brodband net connection.

2) Digital Locker was introduceed by Govt which was used to save all documents safely in cloud. Just like the recent initative by Maharastra govt to provide digital 7/12 sath barah recipts of land which can be easily viewed online.

3) Many online courses are been provided through SWAYAM portal which students can view from anywhere.

4) People can now pay their Electricity bills, Tax, Recharges online which they have to do earlier by standing in long crowded lines.

5) As more and more things are done digitally less ad less paper is been used which saves trees from deforestation.

6) Online transaction can be trackable due to which money laundering can be controlled.

7) DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer) in case of rations, any farm subsidies, eliminates the middlemen.

The modern India, digital India is very beneficial to all section of society. I agree digitization plays an important role in today's life. Now, I can order meal, book cab, buy groceries, send gifts and money to family and friends even from another country through a single click on mobile phones like a magic spell.

Digitization renders easy payments of house bills, phone bills, income taxes, and save time and energy especially in overpopulated countries like India for the smooth working of organization. It plays a crucial role in reducing corruptions, helps in keeping the transparency of income and quick allocation of gov. Funds through Aadhaar link policy. Burglary is also reduced to a limit, as no need to keep cash at homes for basic needs. In an emergency now medicines which is not available nearby can be ordered and payments can be made online. Promotes education, even small cities can access all books through online portal and e-transaction renders the fee payment for competitive exams. Digitization touches every sector and makes life simpler through its different branches. But we need to be alert and take safety measures against cybercrime.

In my opinion, digitization plays a pivotal role in our day to day life. It has overcome many situations after demonetization such as one click to pay the amount to anybody, scanning the bar code, online forms for our applications of passport, License, visa, marriage certificate and many more and that to not giving single penny to brokers, direct cash deposit to needy people however after all these few people are intentionally not opting the digitization to gain the benefit and to save the taxes to fill their pocket with black money. They are not only filling their pocket but also a compelling customer to pay through cash even if he/she has the option to accept plastic money. When we talk about the rural area they are also eagerly learning it and this is not difficult since everyone has smartphones nowadays. People with black money or source of black money are now stopped and they are now dejected to show their aggression for digitization. This is a time when we all have to stand and teach others extensively and ignore deceptive thought or people who are against of it. I hope whoever says this is detrimental can rivet their mind to this option.

Hello everyone,

I am here to share my views on the topic digitalisation.

As we know our India is a digital country. So how does it brings change. let's see.

Our PM Narendra Modi introduce digital India.

By digitalisation, we have lots of features to do anything.

Why we only talk about money.

We have many such facilities like a conference, transfer information, good economy, better education, a good way of thinking, net banking, etc.

We all bounded by technology.

It helps to every sector of the living.

The tremendous growth of technology also give relief to the people like before the jio every network company uses the tower to satellite and provide the connection but jJo reliance company uses optical fibre to transfer connection to every field which provides a high-speed internet in comparison to any other companies.

At last but not least digital India is the way to connect all the people across India and to provide better facilities.

All the people have the right to take any information according to his or her own thoughts.

So use technology in a proper way and in a positive way without compromise to any other community.

Thanks.

It's a blessing that we were born in the digital era especially while we are in the midst of this deadly pandemic. I can't simply imagine how life would be without any digital media to support us - its possible people wouldn't know a pandemic like this even existed! It's a source of information from all parts of the world, we're able to connect with people across the globe and also keep in touch with our loved ones who live far away. Also, work-life isn't much affected because many companies have now started the work from the home strategy which ensures a source of income as well as the safety of the employees. Sure, it is hard for those who have no knowledge of the internet (for example people living in rural areas /poor people) but it's only a matter of getting used to it. Nowadays, even the classes are being held online, everything is virtual ~even playing games! it's impossible to imagine how else we would spend time at home without playing games, going through Instagram, Youtube and other social media. From all this, we can see that it benefits almost everyone! It's true it has some disadvantages, but the advantages are heavier than it.
