Hello.

I think the introduction of digital India benefits the whole country by opening new avenues as the economy grows but I feel if digital India is fully realized it will benefit people living in rural areas the most. For example, the govt spends large sums for the upliftment of people in rural areas but what happens to that sum, a hefty portion of them is pilfered and falls prey to corruption prevailing. BY digitization it will make transactions transparent and its effect will be visible in the rural economy.

It can also benefit internet crooks and cyber thugs if they exploit the vulnerabilities of people in urban areas with a low level of digital literacy there. Today most people in rural areas as a source of credit use money from local moneylenders which charge high-interest rate with digitization more credit will be available for them and the economy will prosper.

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.

Hello everyone,

The scheme that was introduced by our PM that is Digital India is very beneficial for everyone. But the people who in villages in India are not so familiar with the online payment transaction or online bill payments. This is what the reason is because of which the rural area people's cannot take any benefit with this scheme, but on the other side the people who live in urban areas are very used too with such online transactions and the online payment so they are aware of this scheme and take easily benefit of this schemes. It is said that every coin has two sides similarly to this topic also has its boon points and curse points too. This scheme is beneficial for urban area people who are educated and can easily work with such schemes, but it's curse for the rural area people who are not educated and not able to take any kind of benefit with such schemes.

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.

Rajan Kumar.

I am a student I took a positive response about digital India.

Digital India is a way to implement paperless transaction and also a way to save the time it may lead to not only save the time but also save the trees that means eco-friendly to nature. The economy of any country decided by the time to production so all of you habitants to digital India while comparing from long ago nowadays every student have mobile phone from the age of 8to80 years everyone should take an initiate part towards digital India than our country will become an 1st place in digitally developed and corruption-free country I hope that everyone should take a positive role to develop our economy.

Finally, a small quotes "we cannot take India from an Indian, but we can take Indian from India". Like that all take a part in digital India than only entire India said digital India, not digital Indian.

In my opinion, everyone is benefited by digital India. Digital India is a great initiative taken by our prime minister. It helps in controlling corruption up to a certain extent. It also makes.

All the government process easier. Earlier there used to be huge lines for registration, bill payment, and so on, but now it can be done online with our mobile phones or laptops. This not only makes government processes easier but also save our time. Digital India also attracts Bussiness men and entrepreneurs as they can sell their products online. This helps in increasing employment opportunities in our country. In future, ration card is also replaced by smart cards which will help to buy ration goods from anywhere in India helping the people below the poverty line. But technology also has its downsides. But since this is focused on the benefits, We won't be talking about it.

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 is a programme which was launched in the month of July 2015 by our honourable Prime minister Shri Narendra Modi.

This was launched with the aim to drive all the people of India on the digital platform. Through digital India programme nowadays people share their views, ideas and suggestions directly to the government through Narendra Modi App. And all central ministers are available on social media and are utilising social media to receive the complainants and feedback to people.

'Indian government started many schemes through digital India programme like DBT i.e Direct Benefit Transfer, e-governance etc.

This initiation is proving to be a milestone in the path of corruption because of this government will hold most government works online this increase more transparency.

Digital India encourages cashless economy which is beneficial for our economy.

Digital India would change India's growth in its various sectors drastically due to its many advantages.

A Digital India would affect both rural and urban life. In rural area bringing in the idea of digitalisation would mean better and lesser requirement of work. If we think about the past demonetisation, though it was a huge burden for those who worked in villages, so much so that it would increase suicides, if we think about it we could have possibly avoided it if we implemented the idea of a cashless economy much earlier. In urban areas there is an increase amount of transactions via e-commerce which is highly beneficial to a country's financial growth. Digital India has taken its role in education as well, introducing various topics to students in a lively and a more innovative manner. A digital India IS and DOES play an integral role in the progress of India.

Digital India is started for the benefit of the people of India, to make India digital India has launched many schemes like Digilocker "In which we stored our personal documents eg; marks certificates provided by the school, institute, college.

Make in India scheme also includes job creation and skill development across 25 sectors of the economy.

I think digital India will help people living in old tradition more as they will come out to know what was happening in the country as in India, there are more type of people who are living in old traditions and tagged that type of people too who are not yet habited to use online things they rather prefer to do anything by going there where they need the work to be completed as population of that type of people is more that's why if they are getting digital then country's economy will gradually increase as it people too.
