Digital India is an initiative started by GOI in 2015. Globally digital platforms are being used to transform the way we communicate and transact. India also needs to equip itself with digital prowess.

With more than half of our population using mobile phones, with around 95 % of population having digital identity in the form of Adhaar, it is quite simple to make India a digitally rich country.

There are enormous benefits of making India digital in major sectors.

1. Banking.
2. Telecommunication.
3. Service sector.
4. Administration and Judiciary.
5. Agriculture.
Are sectors where digitization will benefit our population.

Benefits.

1. In the Banking sector going digitally will increase the efficiency of the bank. Transacting digitally will enormously decrease the operating cost of the banks.
2. Today the most important sector our economy is agriculture, it has always been important. But due to lack of information regarding current inventions in agriculture, our farmers are in distress. We can educate our farmers using digital platforms and doing this there would be an influx of young minds who will contribute to this sector. We can't imagine the plight of our farming sector, nowadays it has become a trend in rural India to send children to cities to get educated because they don't feel proud of being a farmer.
4. Judiciary and the administration must go digital. It will impede red-tapism which had been prevalent till now. Moreover, Paperwork will also reduce and a feeling of transparency would strengthen in the populace.

In conclusion, I agree that digital India will benefit everyone.

Now we are living in the Digitalisation era. All activities are starting through digital technology. It starts from morning to night.

Nowadays, in the educational sector, Hospitality, business firms, banks all are digitalized. It gives lots of advantages to people. It helps to improve our efficiency.

But there also disadvantages.

It makes lazier to us.

It reduces creativity because all work is done through digital technology where there is not using of the human brain.

Thank you.

Hello, This is Akash.

I am very happy to be a part of this GD.

Our Topic is DIgital INDIA.

Meaning of Digital is very vast, but digitalization provide a base for a country because it helps us to share our knowledge/Skills/Resources and no of many various things.

In INDIA after the Modi government come in central, there was a huge change in digitalization in the Indian economy.

For basic of digitalization, we need Handset/ laptop and Internet for excess digital content.

Jio provides handset and Internet at a very low cost that's why every person affords such services and knows about digitalization. Also in Banking /medical/defense use of digital.

A very huge change in INDIA recent in the education sector due to the digitalization because approximate all courses available on online and also e-books provide, every student exceeds such facility and contributes in Nation.

DIGITAL INDIA, INNOVATIVE INDIA.

Digitalisation actually covers all most all the fields that include education, defence, medical services, businesses etc.

If need to be said with respect to age, then I don't think any one from any age group will get disappointed. Digitalisation majorly helps governments in providing transparency in transactions. Since technology has out of the box, there is no talk of worrying about the privacy and safety. Digitalisation helps people in exploring newer things that they usually think are out of their reach, hence breaking the traditional boundaries.

There are certain talks that say how digitalisation has made man lazier than ever. But this is not the case with the most. Its all about perspective. The broader section that digitalisation helps is students/ researchers. In fact people are getting up on their knees to discover something that helps the mankind.

From the Rickshawala to the prime minister. Everyone uses the reach of technology. With the help of digital India the rise of online payment save crucial time of people as well as it has been easy for government to track the record of transactions. This helps to robust the credibility, transparency and availability of the resources. Digital India give us a pace to improve and strengthen the GDP.

Digitalization is beneficial for all sections, villagers are most beneficial, suppose in the crisis like COVID19 where people are not earning and the government is providing some financial help, it is due to digitalization that money is directly transferred to beneficiaries account rather going in the hands of mediator s where the chances of corruption is very high, but we also need to educate villagers regarding digitalization, we order online and pays online, even we study online through free classes, so it also benefits to those who can't access facilities due to lack of money.

Indian villages will be benefitted the most as with the phase of digitalization they would be provided with even more basic amenities (like electricity would be surely provided as it is a base for digitalization). Villagers will get an opportunity to discover new things through internet facilities.

With digital lockers, our documents would be safely stored. The possibility of loss would be minimized. Online service portals will reduce delays. All procedures would be transparent. Employment will increase as IT companies will employ more people so as to accomplish there i.e.company's goals.

In short, Life would become easier to an extent.
