Digital India has its own benefits, in the20th century, our prime minister Mr. Modi Ji wants to make a digital India. And all we try to follow it. By the help of digital India, we can save our precious time and anywhere in the world we can transaction monkey from to one another, easily pay the electric bill, water bill etc. It is very helpful to those people, who are very busy in their life.

It creates new India in well-developing form.
Demerits:

Hello friends, am Charmitha.
First of all, I would like to appreciate our PM Shri. Narendra Modi and team for the initiative of the project "Digital India". The main motive of this project is to transform our county into a digitally empowered society and knowledge economy. So in that way, it's obviously a benefit for our society which empowers every citizen in our country to participate in digital and e-services. There are many advantages of digital India project which includes high-speed internet connectivity in rural areas and e-governance services to participate in financial space digitally, from cradle to grave digital identity is unique, online and authenticable for every citizen. And it also paves the way for job opportunities as everything became digital using information technology. What more benefit is needed than this for our society to empower our country.

Digital India, also called as digitalization is a great initiative taken by our prime minister.
Every single thing has pros as well as cons. I would like to mainly focus on pros, digitalization has reduced the flow of black money with in the country and helped peoples in respect of time and work.
Formerly if we want to pay money from the account we have to stand in queue for hours, but currently, we can do the same through UPI.
Digitalization helped to reduce bribes in public sectors as well as in colleges and various other sectors.

Hello friends,
Digital India is the dream mission of our honourable prime minister Mr. Narendra Modi. Digital India campaign launched by prime minister Narendra Modi in July 2015. If we use the digital application we can save our important time as well as money. We all know that how digital applications help citizens and government in this covid 19 critical situation. All the meetings, education, banking all are going through digital. In the end, we can conclude that it has many benefits not only for citizens but also the government to lead the country towards success.

Hello everyone,
The initiative of Digital India started by the government is great in terms to making India a less-cash economy and disrupting the parallel economy, but we cannot close our eyes with the challenges it faces in terms of inclusivity of the scheme.
I feel Digital India is more focused on urban population and unless we shift our focus towards rural sectors of our society which contributes two-thirds of our population, complete digitization of India will be a dream.
We also need to deal with the grass root level problems such as internet connectivity in these areas which remains a question mark until now.
We need a lot of infrastructural development to have spectrum availability in order to get good connectivity. 55000 villages ate being deprived of internet connectivity.
We also need a policy level changes for data security and privacy in order to reduce the risk of cybercrime and terrorism which still remains a challenge for India. To address this we need huge investments in technology and strict regulation and then only we can move towards digitization.
Also, we have improved over the years in terms of reach and education of our people and opened up a bank account for them, but the question remains how many people are using it among the remote rural areas and how many of them understand " online transactions", etc. Digital literacy remains a big challenge for us which is only 10%, that means 90% of the people are digitally illiterate and unless this addressed the mission of Digital India won't be fulfilled.
These are some of the basic challenges faced by Digital India, it being for now benefitting only the urban population. Unless these are being addressed, I guess digitizing India would be a distant reality.

Hi everyone.
Myself Mohit Kumawat.
Digital India is one more step to take our country in the path of success. It is started by our prime minister Mr. Narendra Modi. it makes our life easier and comparable and reduced time and stress.
It has many benefits like:
- we can pay the electricity bill and water bill easily at home.
- there is no need to carry a lot of cash.
- food order, travelling, hotel booking, movie tickets etc. Can be done in a single minute without going outside.
As we know a coin has two sides so digital India also has some drawbacks.
- anyone can hack our account and withdraw money.
- anyone can get our personal details from social media
- sometimes it creates problems relating to server system like server crashed, server not responding etc.

Good morning everyone.
Today we are going to discuss the Digital India Campaign.
This campaign started in 2015 by our honourable prime minister Narendra Modi.
Now we can see its effects in all over India. It has made our life easier since before. Because of this campaign internet has spread to villages area. Now people are well acquainted with the use of the internet and they can easily access the internet at any place, at any time.
But as we know that every coin has two sides that's why digital India also has its demerits.
In digital India campaign, there are lots of risks of being hacked and cybercrimes.
Thank You.

Digitial India is definitely a very good and smart approach towards making our country develop and technology based. It was started by our PM Narendra Modi in the year 2016. It is an innovative step towards making India technology based. But everthing has its cons and pros. In the steps towards making India digital people can make transactions anytime and from anywhere without wasting time on the other hand due to cyber frauds many people hesitate in doing online transactions and moreover rural people are not even aware of online modes. So digital India is definately a good step towards better India but it needs to be more safe and helpful.
Thank you.
Thank you.

According to me digital India is a great initiative taken by government of India because it will immensely save time people spend standing in ATM lines as instead they can use online banking services and other most imp thing is that it will make people digitally literate as if people know the benefits of using digital system they will at least try to use it in that process they will become digitally literate. As everything has good side and bad side also, I must mention that on the other side nearly 70% of India's total population live in remote and rural areas where proper internet connectivity is not available to them and it will take several years for schemes to reach them so digital India will barely benefit them in initial period but if proper campaigning is done by government and also if quality of services is improved then definitely rural people will also start using and eventually getting benefited by digital services.

Hi guys, I think the digital India campaign is benefiting every citizen of India unconditionally. Digital India is a campaign launched by the Government of India in order to ensure the Government's services are made available to citizens electronically by providing online infrastructure and by increasing Internet connectivity or by making the country digitally empowered in the field of technology. The initiative includes plans to connect rural areas with high-speed internet networks. Digital India benefits every citizen from old to young. Now A day every person can shop online can do financial transactions or can summit electricity bill, etc without standing in a long queue that was taken as granted in India before launching of digital India campaign 2015.
