Digital India: Whom Does it Benefit?

What I feel is that; We all must be aware of "digitalization".

Digitalization is one of the best way to boost our economy in terms of the primary secondary and tertiary sector. BUT;

Those who can afford and have proper knowledge of using it for them it would be very beneficial but those who are just "afraid" of using it and can't even afford or using it with the threat of hacking. For them it is useless.

If we want our India as DIGITAL INDIA then they must be taught properly so that it becomes beneficial for all and help in boosting our economy.

Hello everyone,

As we all know that in this era, India is on the list of developing countries, lots of people facing the problem of poverty, water, electricity, education, proper meal etc. Conditions in the backward area are not up to the mark, they don't have a smartphone, laptop, internet facility. More than 50% of the Indians used to this problem. So how we can imagine Digital India?

Digitalization is a fantastic concept, but what about who have no internet, electricity at their home. So according to my opinion, the government should take initiative about these poor people. Otherwise, we will never come on the list of developed countries.

Hackers and thieve find lots of ways to do stolen money from the accounts.

This is the irony of digitalization that most people don't know how to use gadgets.

Hello everyone.

In this pandemic situation, every citizen of India is facing lot of problems like Jobs, unemployment, GDP rate, etc.

But this digitalization concept has lots of benefits, some are;

1) Education sector: by using different platforms like zoom, google meet students can do study at their home without issue. However numerous students are also facing eyesight problems because they have to sit in front of the laptop for several hours. But most of the students are used to do this.

2) Banking sector: if you look at 10 years back without digital India you have to go in a queue for a long time if you want to credit some amount in the bank, but right now conditions are different, by one click you can send currency anywhere in the world.

3) Information broadcasting: By the digital India concept you can get any type of information by using Google, YouTube.

4) Social media: Social media platform right now so much active because of that you can connect anywhere in the world. Etc etc.

Pros: Easy, Saves Time, Feasible, Portable, Done from anywhere, Connects to the world, Stand in competition, Fast development, High growth rate, Get anything to your doorsteps.

Cons: Rich become Richer, Poor become poorer, Can't be opted without Smartphone, Lack of awareness causes afraid of money loss, the threat of hackers.

I guess it benefits all from poor to rich, small to big, old to young but the important thing is they should know how to use it, how it can benefit them, in what ways it can help them to make their life better and easy.

So, it does benefit everyone but people should be more aware of it, they should know things like online payments, shopping, pharmacy, online educational classes and many different courses from which they can actually learn and also how they can start there own business, startup or how they can turn their passion into something which can actually be real. I seriously think that digital platforms can actually help someone take their passion one step ahead. And how digital payment can help them have extra money benefits and more. Finding a job online to filling a form online or sometimes paying school or tuition fee online does save time, and also it is way more convenient. Also, I think that everyone should have benefited from it, there are many things for farmers or less certain people on digital platforms but they should be first aware of it second can afford it, which is the main concern as they don't have tools to use these platforms on. So something for making it affordable has to be done for them. It might have disadvantages but I believe the growing technology will one day overcome it also.

I hope all are doing well.

As per my thinking, all people must know the word "Digitalization" & at least one person in a family has to know the process of digitalization like online payment through different applications such as (phonepay, Google pay, Paytm). Online education (zoom, Byzus, gradeup. ) , online shopping (Amazon, Flipkart. ) & online marketing and many more. We all know about current situations at any place in our world through the news applications & some social media apps like Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, WhatsApp etc. I am very thankful to Google, I think it is a very helpful app for all. Nowadays digital processing is very useful in this COVID-19 pandemic situation, due to this situation many people know the value of digitalization. These all come under merits.

We all know that everything has merits and demerits. Coming to demerits, some people don't know any idea about the word digital due to lack of education and knowledge. The main problem is a poor network in some areas.

Finally, I think that digitalization having huge merits and low demerits.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GIVING THIS WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY TO ME.

In my opinion, Digital India is a great initiative and has positively and negatively impacted a lot of lives. When looking at the further good side, it has given birth to employment. People are now getting more and more jobs just via a few clicks. It has helped with a vast network. I can now easily connect anyone on the other side of the world. It has kept the world running during this pandemic. Whereas, we shouldn't forget that it has also taken a lot of lives and jobs. While it has given us new ways to explore, it has also taken away the young generations creativity and will to learn. It has given rise to an unending war between humans and machines.

Finally, everyone has their own views on it, but I believe that digitization benefits those who make the correct use of it.

One can say digital means doing more work in less time. As everyone is aware how our country is getting digitized day by day which is such an amazing thing Earlier it was all offline work, as an example standing in queue for any government related work, paper work in offices, etc. So as our country is moving towards digital, there is less burden on people i.e. one can take the benefits such as online shopping, internet banking, online business, online study, online dance classes and many more. In this covid19 pandemic, our country is moving towards digital as online class for schools and colleges has been started, exams are conducted online which shows our study is not much affected by the pandemic otherwise our country has gone 10 years back if this digital India initiative has not been taken. Though there are difficulties faced by rural people but its not permanent. By the time this will also be solved as our country moves towards digitialization.

DIGITALIZATION a dream of our honourable P.M.Modi. This was put a long time back. Peeping into past true digitalization started under the era of Rajiv Gandhi who had pioneered and introduced computer and began this tech era.

But we are lagging so far, it has been almost 50 years still we are dragging for digital India.

A question arises will it ever become possible in a country like India. As every coin has two sides the challenge also had. In this pandemic, all of us have undergone multiple difficulties but somewhere it has been reduced. And credit goes to step towards Digital India. We have been able to recognize the deeds done by our doctors, nurses, police officers, cleanliness workers. All have done their part extraordinarily in this critical situation.

During this time also student are able to continue their studies undoubtedly they might have to face some issue but it has been lessened due to this. Our learning system has transformed completely and including both teacher and students become adaptive. If digitalization were not there education system will be at a halt for an indefinite time. Being optimistic COVID 19 has opened various opportunities to learn at home, work from home and all this is performed only because many of us are becoming techno-savvy. Still, it required some more time to reach at rural area but definitely it will be possible soon.

All our belief has been revolutionized we are not waiting for things when will will as usual.

We have started and learned from this difficulties also that stay going.

I feel that the dream of making a country like India a digital one is much far away than our worthy Prime Minister think since everybody is not ready to accept things digitally. We all know that most of India's population is living in rural areas so they don't have access to basic amenities like internet, computers etc. So there will be a problem of implementing things. Moreover, those who reside in urban areas are also affected and inflicted. To prove this stance, I can take a recent example of colleges where most of the teachers didn't even bother to teach students online during this pandemic and students also didn't have resources. To appear for exams as well, there were some problems which students faced while uploading answer sheets and downloading question papers.

So in nutshell, India is far way behind to achieve the dream of Digital India and it will take to time to make a change.
