So first whom does Digital India benefits.

In my perception, the areas where it benefits people are:

1. Banking Sector- It benefits both people and employees in the banking sector by making most of the things online. Like money transactions, changing one's credentials, applying for loans, and many more.

2. Agricultural sector- India is an agricultural-based economy. And awareness farmers matters the most as these people are less educated but contributes the most. They are able to learn schemes meant for them, able to see the weather for casting, technologies in agriculture, and even debt for their crop before farming and money after selling crop gets deposited in a minute.

3. Service Sector - All kind of service sector now uses technology for providing better services like online ticket booking, online application for driving license, Aadhar card, PAN card, online tax submission, and many more.

4. Students - Now everyone owns a smartphone every student can learn from online portals for free. Even nowadays we have an option like distance learning. Professors and students all around the world are connected.

Through a small gadget in our pocket.

5. Physically Challenged - The online shopping sites, online food delivery apps, and even in some cities few supermarkets provide the facility of home delivery of groceries, fruits, and vegetables. These are a great relief for physically challenged people.

6. Every citizen - As in India, we know corruption is the biggest evil. Digitization is a great initiative to bring transparency. So now every transaction is counted making less black money. A number of applications and sites dedicated to great ideas like buying and selling preowned things, e-commerce sites, and many more bringing sellers and buyers in direct contact.

There is a concept of public fundraising in which a person urges the public to contribute money for some disaster management, pandemic, NGOs, orphanage and sometimes for themselves also. And we are being the more fortunate can donate them just by one click.

There are a lot of benefits Digital India is doing and to a lot of people but now the question is whom does it not benefit.

So the answer is all the people who do not know how to use technology properly and having inadequate resources like not having good internet connection are the ones who are not taking advantage of this property. The government distributed mobile phones to encourage digitization but is unable to provide them good internet connection and also people who are not many experts in this (basically villagers, illiterates, and mentally challenged) are not able to identify frauds. So this increases cyber crimes hence again discouraging people.

Considering the current pandemic situation, where hygiene and social distancing have become an important part of everyone's life. Digital India will benefit businesses of all sizes. For example, take the HoReCa segment to understand this. There are many restaurants which have already discarded the use of traditional menu cards keeping the chance of spreading the infection to the customers and the staff. They have adopted a complete digital model of functioning. A customer is provided with a QR code on the table, through which he can browse through the digital menu, order, pay without any physical cash exchange. So according to me, digital India will be benefitted by businesses as well as the general public. But every good thing comes with cons too, so there might be a connectivity issue or online frauds etc. But overall, it's a great step towards the development of India.

From my point of view, digitalization of the country provides an opportunity for the youngster to be a self-dependent and allow them to explore the possibility in terms of technology.

Good morning everyone.

Today our topic is Digital India.

This scheme was started by Narendra Modi in 2015.

After this, a big change came to every person's life.

It saves our time and money and gave a comfort life.

It is also helpful for a new generation. But everything has a good effect as well as bad effects.

First of all, good morning to everyone. As far as, the merits of digital India is a concern then one can come to know that it different spheres of society. For example, if talk about trade & commerce, it makes all the procedures faster and safer. The accuracy and precision of each and every transactional process is increased to any extent. Apart from trade and commerce the positive impact of digitisation can also be noticed in our daily life. Now if we come to today's schooling and education that we come to know that digital study is gradually replacing the prior studies. Today's students are much sharper than earlier ones. Now they don't need to wait for their teachers for the answers regarding their queries they have their solutions on the spot. At the end, I would like to say that digitisation has shown a positive impact to the spheres of the society thus it benefitted to each and every one. Thank you.

Hello everyone.

Digital India is a great initiative by our government and it is contributing a lot to the development of our country.

It ensures that govt services are available to everyone digitally (electronically) with good infrastructure and internet connectivity.

It has reduced corruption to a great extent and saved our valuable time and made everything easy. It has reduced the burden of making currency, and everyone is having a mobile wallet now and every transaction is transparent to users.

On the other side, it is beneficial to urban areas mostly and there are transaction limits and must be protected from cybercrimes.

Good afternoon everyone!

Digital India is the one step which is taken by our prime minister Narendra Modiji sir. Which involves a number of schemes and people have got benefits such as ujjwala scheme gave gas cylinder and so on.

As every coin has two sides, digitalization does not give benefits to rural areas people, this is a big problem where Modi government should be more focus.
