I am Anbarasan. In my point of view, digital India is not much suit for Indian peoples. And at the same time, I am not the opposite of that. First, we have to educate our peoples. Then talks about digital India. Because lots of peoples ard not knowing how to use a small mobile phone in rural areas.

According to me, Without digitization, it is impossible to boost our economy.
As we know India is a developing country and digitalization is a the only way Which can save a lot of time of any work. There was a time when one has to stand in long lines for atm transaction, getting a ticket, buying the product, etc.
Now all these works can be done by just one click with the help of digitalization.
It helped every sector of people. Some of them are:
1. Education - now anyone who wants to improve his knowledge can learn from the online portal for free. In India, a no of the lecture are created daily on youtube daily which can be watched by any student just by his smartphone with zero cost. A lot of teachers and professors are now teaching online, providing notes in affordable prize. Also in this pandemic, the states of India are creating an educational app for their student to continue their study.
2. Banking sector - as we know banking helps a lot to boost any economy. Nowadays all types of transactions like sending money to someone, fee deposition, recharge of phone, buying a product online, etc can be done just two to five minutes with the help of online banking. We can also apply for a loan as well.
3. Agricultural - as we know India is an agricultural-based country. And now farmers can get a lot of information about a scheme launched by government which was not able before digitalization. They are also able to see weather forecasting, technology in agriculture and even can get a loan for farming like government provide loan for fish farming.
4. The service sector- now all type of service sector uses technology for providing better service like online ticket booking, online application for driving license, Aadhar card, PAN card, online tax submission, and many more.
People whos is physically challenged can not get benefit from online shopping sites, online food delivery apps, even in some cities few supermarkets provide the facility of home delivery of groceries, fruits, and vegetable which are a great relief for these people.
Digitalization also helps in reducing corruption. But there are several areas of India where internet literacy is too low as compared to well-developed areas so first, we should try to educate our people.

From my point of view.
We all know, its benefits like online banking, trading, shopping, etc but it should be done with a reliable.
Website. The usage of reliable websites can make a person to enjoy the benefits of digitalization. Banking, trading shopping should be done from a reliable website. Only proper usage of the internet can make of digitalization a successful reform.

In my point of view, I have 2 opinions about this issue they are-.
1) Coming to the benefits of this scheme, it is very beneficial for every sector and also for every person with proper usage. Nowadays we can pay the current bills, phone bills, debts by simply sitting in our house with the help of a small gadget i.e. cellphone and even if we go to bank there is no need to wait in the queue for our turn we can simply book the token in advance and then we can complete our work in a few minutes, even the government will credit the fees reimbursement to the students and pensions to the elder and physically challenged people to their own bank accounts-all these are due to the advancement in the technology which is digital India. So it is very beneficial for everyone one in society and for the government.
2) In my perception, every situation will definitely have pros and cons of an issue so if we wish to have more pros than the cons of issue then we have to improve the situation to be more beneficial with our support, for the sake of Digital India we the people who are aware of technical knowledge must have to share our knowledge with the people who are lack of this skill for example illiterates, farmers, poor students, etc. , we must make them aware of malpractices through the internet and cybercrimes. Because the government is not only the one who is responsible for the development of society. Every citizen is responsible for the progress of our economy then only every person will be benefitted with this scheme.

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.

To be honest digital India benefits the one who knows it's uses for ones as well as others welfare. Digital India is a good initiative if implemented well. There are several things that needs to be considered while focusing on digital India. It involves use of technology and internet. In India, there are several areas where internet literacy is too low as compared to well developed areas so first uplifting the areas by providing good education about internet and urging the population to make it's good use will surely benefit the digital India initiative. Almost every sector in Indian economy will rise with use of technology through digital India. It will also help poor people as several things are free on internet for example education. So internet literacy will definitely play a minor role in digital India proving success in India's development.

In my opinion, digital India is making beneficial to us whenever our India is digital it's saved our time like COVID 19 critical situation. A lot of employs do work from home students can learn our studies by laptop, Mobile, tablet etc. It gives much more information to the farmer to make her farm better. Avoid paperwork lots of information are available on our mobile. Digital India improves our knowledge. A handicapped person can take better benefits through digital India.

According to my perception, digitalization is a very good step taken by the Indian government on 1 july, 2015. As there are both advantages and disadvantages in every sector but what is important that if merits are more than these overcome the small demerits occurring.
Digitalization is helpful for all age groups and handicapped people too.
The agricultural sector, education sector, telecommunication, service sector, banking, etc. Are some examples which are being vast due to digitalization. As we can now save our money and data and time. Reduced corruption, decrease documentation, and increase public sector service are some more merits of digitization. The workload is reduced and accuracy is enhanced.
While the demerits are for the rural area and internet connectivity. So what the government has to do now is to provide a vast internet connection and for those who are illiterate and from rural background government has provided universal digital literacy which means that one member from each house will be taught the computer and mobile operations free of cost. And there are many other schemes too.
So, in my opinion, this initiative taken by the countries' governments is beneficial.

Digital India: Whom does it benefit?
Digital India is the initiative taken by the government of India in 2015. According to my perspective, making India a digitalized country is one of the best decision taken by the government. Digitalization helps us almost in every sector, such as banking, service sector, agriculture, e-learning, etc. Due to digitalization, we don't have to stand in a queue for a long time and save our time. In case, if there is some problem we need urgent money we can transfer it by just one click. It helps our farmers to get acquainted with the new technologies in the field of farming. Most of the people are giving excuse of the rural areas, how the people of this areas will use this facility of digitalization. For such people I would like to clear that the money transfer is just a simple process, if they try to practice they will get acquainted with that, and there is no problem of language because there are many option of language. And now a days our youth are becoming very smart and intelligent they can also help their family members to get benefit of digitalization. Digitalization also reduces the paperwork. The dream of digitalization can only be acquainted if there is good connectivity of internet. The major issue in the rural areas is about the connectivity of internet.

First of all, thank you for selecting such an interesting topic.
The term digital India means a program launch by the government of India in order to make everything available online.
According to my opinion, Digital India is a huge and great platform initiated by Our Prime Minister Shree Narendra Modi.
It has improved every sector of our country and also helped in improving the economy.
1. During the pandemic situation Of the COVID-19 crisis when the government is supporting less privileged people, daily wager workers it is possible through digital money transfer instead of handling them.
2. Agriculture is considered as one of the most important sectors of our economy, through digital India it is possible to educate our farmers, help them in cultivating more enriched crops.
3. Easy and simple: Gone are the days when one has to stand in long lines for ATM transactions, with digital India its one-click transaction.
4. Eliminating Corruption:
One of the evil act in our country is corruption, with the scenario of online money transfer, the false act of black marketing has been reduced hence eliminating corruption from our society.
5. Promotes Work from Home:
Many people find it difficult to travel or considering the situation of a present pandemic.
All the schools, colleges are conducting online lectures, taking quizzes, and also involving students in online fun activities along with that providing E-certificates, this all is possible only because of digital India.
Also, most of the private sectors are asking their workers to work from home. If we forgot the pandemic situation for a while then also most people who do blogging, or sharing something in any of social platforms and earning an income, made it possible because of digital India.
I would like to conclude the topic that Digital India is a major positive step taken by our government and I fully endorse with it.
