As many countries moved towards digitalisation long before we are aware of. But as there is a say late but not an end. And now we have adopted it and ahead of many countries in term of digital economy. As question is whom does it benefit in our case it is the people of india, our own brothers and sisters who were till now remains untouched of progressive world. Government (Govt) launched this Digital India program with so much energy and determination knowing it's positive results and benefits. It will be carried out by all the government now. It is the base of other programmes of the government Whether it is gst, demonetisation or e-book learning.

As being 7th largest and most diverse country it is difficult to reach all physically but digitally it is possible. It will bring transparency and connectiveness of the system. As it is easy for people also to understand and use it. Earlier it is difficult for people to access many schemes benefit.

For eg. To check bank balance they have to go to bank miles away from their home but now it is there on their phone through net banking or message.

Once you experienced it's presence and benefit it has for you like online payment, time saving by accessing all lot of data through phones, filling job or other application etc. No one can leave it.

But there is also a Big challenge, Unawareness and Illiteracy. To counter this we have Shaksharta Bharat mission with us.

Availability of network in remote areas, data plans bills. Many agencies are working on it and shown positive results.

At last, I will say as a whole it will benefit the common citizen.

Since India's IT related education (including laws and limitations) is very poor this is very early to take such initiative. The people who are well equipped and educated can easily misuse the provision and the people who will get benefitted will be limited to those people. A standardless provision of internet access and influence of marketing companies are the dangerous byproducts of digitalization. A society which is well educated to segregate between good and bad will sufficiently gets benefitted by digitalization of a country until then it is a political move of a government to show off it's fake advancement. "Whom does it benefit?".

Digital India is beneficial for all, government as well as public. For example we can easily pay our electricity bills, water bills, mobile recharges, etc just by sitting at home. We don't need to go out everytime for these small works and thus can save our time to do other important work in that duration. Also, the senior people and house wives who aren't familiar with internet can be familiarise with it and therefore will reduce the generation gap, which helps them to connect with their kids easily because now they understand their lifestyle and their necessity towards internet and social media. Digital India is helpful for government in the regard that they can connect with people easily through internet and can pass their message to everyone in a very short duration also unlike newspaper which comes in next morning and then people will get to know what happened last day. So overall making India digital is a very good initiative taken by government of India and much helpful too. Also it will leave an effect on other countries that India is much updated with technology and every Indian is using it.

2. Students get benefitted from it by getting or solving their problem by just a single click.

Digital India -In my views, digital India should cover the whole of India. Various projects launched by the government are beneficial to the society as a whole. We are a developing economy and we require a greater investment in e commerce as it is a globally accepted tool for not only globalisation but also domestic economy building. So gradually changes are made day to day so that end consumer can get the benefit of digitisation. Another aspect of digital India is the use of e-money which came into light when demonitisation was called on november 8, 2016. I would not really support the fact that e-money is accepted by both rural and urban regions of the country as literacy rate and poverty rates are major challenges for the country which is still needed to be dealt with. Further digital libraries available for students is a good plattform for them to learn the updated information day to day.

Moreover, the government has allocated more than 3000 crores this year which is a handful amount to keep the digital India moto a successful one.

Digital India helps a lot in saving time like it is not necessary nowadays to go to the bank and draw money by just one tap we can make our transactions within seconds using apps like phone pay and paytm.

Online courses like SWAYAM and many NPTEL courses which are made by lecturers of IIT's and many more prestigious institutions help many students to get educated without spending a lot of money on coaching institutions.

It is good to know that rural areas are also getting high-speed internet and everyone is using Jio (the game changer of digital life in rural areas) so that connections can be made easily with their relatives. We can reduce the use of paper.

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.

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.
