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.

Good morning everyone.

I would like to start this topic by saying that digital India is a great initiative taken by our prime minister Mr. Narendra Singh Modi. This initiative makes many things easier like because of this we can continue our online payment method within less time and obviously less money. It helps in e-learning as well as e-commerce. The many advantages is that there is no chance of corruption because there is no involvement of the third person. So this initiative makes our India digital.

Digital India is a campaign launched by the Government of India in order to ensure the Government's services are made available to citizens electronically by improved online infrastructure and by increasing Internet connectivity or by making the country digitally empowered in the field of technology. The initiative includes plans to connect rural areas with high-speed internet networks. Digital India consists of three core components: the development of secure and stable digital infrastructure, delivering government services digitally, and universal digital literacy.

Launched on 1 July 2015 by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, it is both enabler and beneficiary of other key Government of India schemes, such as BharatNet, Make in India, Startup India and Standup India, industrial corridors, Bharatmala, Sagarmala, dedicated freight corridors, UDAN-RCS and E-Kranti.

As of 31 December 2018, India had a population of 130 crore people (1.3 billion) , 123 crore (1.23 billion) Aadhaar digital biometric identity cards, 121 crore (1.21 billion) mobile phones, 44. 6 crore (446 million) smartphones, 56 crore (560 million) internet users up from 481 million people (35% of the country's total population) in December 2017, and 51 per cent growth in e-commerce.

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.

The Digital India concept developed by the government of India is very much beneficial to all the common people. It also saves time. And the main thing it reduces the crowd of people at the bank for a small transaction. But some people not use this because of insecurity. We have to make it secure so anyone can use this without tension.

Digital India is a very good initiative by the Indian government.

In digital India, schemes government is trying to put all the information, data and services on your fingertip so that you can access them in very less time.

If we talk about the benefits of this program there are a lot of benefits for all the people both in rural and urban sectors. This program very uses full in different sectors like banking. , railways services food services and many more. In these nowadays people just pick up their phone Or laptop and they just do the thing, they order food, they book their ticket and etc in few seconds without facing any kind of little problems.

By digital everything is online what have you need, this saves a lot of time, and people and use the government service at any time not only in but also in the night whenever they are free not only in working hours of the organisation so these are the major advantage of digital India scheme.

And, if I conclude, in one we can say digital India program provides us with a lot of comforts, easy to access in every field of life.

Digital India is a campaign launch by Indian Government on 1st july, 2015. Digital India consists of three main components: the development of secure digital infrastructure, delivering government services digitally, and universal digital literacy. I think it is beneficial to all of us because:

1. If we want a small amount of money, we have to wait in a queue for a long time, but now through the digital system we purchase it quickly.

2. As we know the internet is available to all of us nowadays, it is easy to control our account with safety.

3. Digital Locker facility will help citizens to digitally store their important documents like PAN card, passport, mark sheets and degree certificates. Digital Locker will provide secure access to Government-issued documents. It uses authenticity services provided by Aadhaar. It is aimed at eliminating the use of physical documents and enables the sharing of verified electronic documents across government agencies.

4. Nowadays digital sign is a common thing, so we will not wait for the approval.

5. Not only rich people but also poor rural people get the benefits, as an example: in a tea stall a common problem is changes, but nowadays one can pay the money through an app by scanning the barcode in a tea stall.

Digital India is one of the positive aspect which is increasing in India, to be honest it benefits almost all the urban people and up-to some percentage of rural people. Digital India is good initiative taken, as this will really help people to save their time and utilize the same time for any other important work they have to do. It actually benefits to adults and the senior citizens who can just do all their works from their office or from their home itself, like for example if they have to pay their current bill and their broadband bill on the same day, so instead of going to their service office and paying their bills, they can do the simplest job by paying their bills online through the prescribed apps, which in-turn will safe their time and also trouble of waiting in their queue. In this way their actually many things which can be done, but I just gave a small example through which we get to know that digital India is one of the plus points for the present and the up-coming generation and yes presently it is quite help-full to all age groups of people to some extent, but more help-full to adults and the senior citizens. Hence I would like to conclude by saying that Digital India is one of the India's positive approach which should continue to its high extent which will obviously help the people as and when required.

Digital India : Hello everyone in today's topic we are going to talk about how digital India is changing the picture of India and who is getting the benefit from it.

So, digital India is a great initiative taken by our Indian government. Earlier people were not known to the digital technology and people used to stay in line even for the small amount of transaction. But after launching of google pay app and phone pay app people can simply transfer their funds from one account to another account.

Also, even a local tea vendor and local departmental shop vendor is utilising the benefit of digital India in nowadays they have access of paytm barcode and phonepay scan so that they can get their small amount through these apps.

Also, many people are getting employment through youtube and social media. So this is the power of digital India and both the community rich and poor are getting the benefit.

And every phenomenon has some disadvantages as well but in digital India concept, more advantages are there.

Thank you.
