Digital India: Whom Does it Benefit?

I am grateful for having an opportunity to share my thoughts on the topic of digitalisation and to whom it benefits.

Firstly, I think digitalisation has made life easier for everyone from transferring to money to one another without any burdens of carrying our wallet and it is easy to send money in just a click. Digitalisation has also benefited people to promote their business by selling their products through many shopping platforms. Nowadays everyone has a smartphone which can be used to easily search and check for reviews to buy their desired product. Digitalisation played a vital role during the COVID-19 pandemic when people could travel nowhere sitting in their homes, and digitalisation enabled them to order food groceries and medicines from their place. It has also helped students to continue their classes online despite schools being closed. But in certain ways digital India initiative has its one drawback of cyber crimes such as bank account details being misused, harassment, etc, It could be prevented if the government strengthened cyber security and ensured people that their information is safe and privacy is being maintained.

Digital India is a great initiative taken by our government. Nowadays in this COVID -19 pandemic situation, digitalization takes place a vital role, the government using digital media platforms such as YouTube or Facebook for telling the current situation of this pandemic.

And also many organization uses digitalize tool for their employee to work from home. And also digitalization makes people happy as they don't need too much of cash with them because everywhere is the option of sending money online. So it is one great idea for growing our economy too.

Digital India was launched by the Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi on 1 July 2015, with an objective of connecting rural areas with high-speed Internet networks and improving digital literacy. [The vision of Digital India programme is inclusive growth in areas of electronic services, products, manufacturing and job opportunities. It is centred on three key areas " digital infrastructure as a utility to every citizen, governance and services on demand, and digital empowerment of citizens.

With changing in time. We have to also change ourself.

Digital India is one of the best schemes. This program was launched in 2015 by our prime minister Shree Modi. The aim of this scheme was the provide an opportunity to people who are not able to afford costly things. One of the biggest success of this scheme is online education. Now we see the online education and online platform provide us with expensive courses at the cheapest price with the best content.

Helo Friends.

In My point of view, digital India is beneficial for both rural and urban. India 70% of people living in rural area. In a rural area was not connect with internet. But after Jio revolution connected rural areas with the internet. Nowadays rural and urban people using cashless transaction. Digital India gave freedom to all people.

1. Nowadays all people have no time, digital transaction saving our time.

2. Direct payment in account vanished corruptions in all departments.

3. No fear, money sneaks.

4. Digital India creates a good platform for a rural student for reading online books, Apps.

Digital India is a very good initiative taken by our government. I won't say that it is wrong. But it is to see how is the education of our country. Still, I think, first of all, the government should think about education. Because the education level is low in our country. Mostly urban area's people use internet banking e-ticketing etc. But when rural area's people are going in any bank, don't fill any form and bring any document for their recruitment. So I think, the government should first work on education.

Thanks.

Digital helped the people in many like the digitalization of post offices to make them the new passport office and these post offices are used as a bank too. So the places where bank was not able to reach. Post offices have provided an alternative.

Also, various schemes started by the government earlier was not able to reach the people because of a corrupt official in between the system. Now through these digital programs. Government can send money directly in accounts of people directly without any mediator in between.

So all these are possible due to the effects of digitalization. So in my opinion digitalization helping society in a good manner.

Some people said in the above discussion that uneducated people are not able to use this. It doesn't mean we should not promote digitalisation. Because it is a development process. If we start today. Then tomorrow the young kids of today's generation will be aware of this.

Hello Everyone, My Name is Rajan Kumar.

Digital India is a dream of our honorable Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi. We knew it is a very big and important step for growing India. Today, India is growing very fast and we have to compete with another well developed countries like Switzerland, Netherlands, United State.

Digital India saves our money, our time, our efforts & corruption as well. I will give a example of Pan Card. Now you can apply pan card from your home only. No need to visit government offices and face a long queue. It saves our time and energy too. Earlier in government office they ask bribe for our work, now no need face this type of situations. You can save the money.

Overall, we must say it is a very good decision and we must praise the effort of Modi goverment.

Thank you so much for your valuable time which you spent for my views.

The imports will turn zero as India will have a staggering 400, 000 Public Internet Access Points.

Over 2.5 lakh educational institutions including schools and universities will have wi-fi facility.

The most telling impact will be on increasing skills and job prsopects. It is estimated that by 2019, about 1.7 crores young Indians will have proper training in IT, telecom and electronics.

This will lead to 1.7 crore jobs directly and the resultant economic upsurge will add another 8.5 crore jobs.

The total impact will be more than 10 crore jobs for Indian youths in about 4 years from now.

India will become a world leader in IT interface with e governance and e-services getting maximum exposure. Indian firms will gain internationally with their expetise in IT use in services like health, education and banking.

The vision of Digital India is centred on three key areas. The first benefit will be the availability of utilities to citizens.

Digital Infrastructure will deliver the services, like banking and access to a service centre at the doorstep of citizens with the help of high-speed internet.

The second vision area focuses on governance and services.

Across departments and places, the digital movement will bring everything on the screen of their devices, in a sense in their own hands.

Services will be available in real time to the people, cutting across the red tape and other hindrances. It will also increase the use of cloud services and enable citizens to receive their due just it from cloud services.

Similarly, it will increase the ease of doing business in India and also the benefit to complete the financial transactions without having to set foot outside the home.

The third vision will empower citizens digitally.

The digital revolution will be of immense benefits to the citizens as digital resources, like documents will be easily available on the cloud, making access easier and fast.

Further, the services would be more friendly as they would be available on the native languages, making the reach comprehensible and vast.

So Digital India is all set to transform the country into a nation where things will move fast and will move in the direction people and citizens would want.

According to my point of view, Digital India is the best step taken by the government of India. It is benificial for all those who are using mobiles. The most benifits of digital India is on our environment the paper work is less which leads the cutting tree. We don't to stand in bank queue for hours. We can easily pay someone by single clicking it saves our time and money.

Digital India will be beneficial for particular individuals initially.

1) it will be beneficial for the general public which has to wait for basic requirements.
2) it will help every division of society as it reduces the chances of corruptions.
3) It will be beneficial for the future feet of the country as it provides basic net access and information of various fields easily and with less time loss.

Limitations:

1) It's still not accessible to every individual of society.
2) Many steps still required to get it more approachable to corners of the country.
3) Schemes should be run to motivate it's uses.
4) People should come to know about its benefits.

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.

The Digital India benefit to the entire nation as it helps in the paperless economy, takes less of time, monitoring everything digitally.

Now, India is at the position to change we knew changes take time but it's good for nation people who are literate can easily cope up with changes & they get benefits by any means but those who are illiterate if they put efforts they can also Get benefit many MNCs are making efforts govt is also doing their best companies like Paytm Amazon Flipkart they are giving the scheme to drive customers.
