When India is making cashless then corruption is less.

Hello everyone,
The initiative of Digital India started by the government is great in terms to making India a less-cash economy and disrupting the parallel economy, but we cannot close our eyes with the challenges it faces in terms of inclusivity of the scheme.
I feel Digital India is more focused on urban population and unless we shift our focus towards rural sectors of our society which contributes two-thirds of our population, complete digitization of India will be a dream.
We also need to deal with the grass root level problems such as internet connectivity in these areas which remains a question mark until now.
We need a lot of infrastructural development to have spectrum availability in order to get good connectivity. 55000 villages ate being deprived of internet connectivity.
We also need a policy level changes for data security and privacy in order to reduce the risk of cybercrime and terrorism which still remains a challenge for India. To address this we need huge investments in technology and strict regulation and then only we can move towards digitization.
Also, we have improved over the years in terms of reach and education of our people and opened up a bank account for them, but the question remains how many people are using it among the remote rural areas and how many of them understand " online transactions", etc. Digital literacy remains a big challenge for us which is only 10%, that means 90% of the people are digitally illiterate and unless this addressed the mission of Digital India won't be fulfilled.
These are some of the basic challenges faced by Digital India, it being for now benefitting only the urban population. Unless these are being addressed, I guess digitizing India would be a distant reality.

Good morning everyone the topic given to us is very interesting. So guys in my opinion digital India is a great initiative which was taken by our honourable P.M.Mr. Narendra Modi. The advantages of digital India is quite a havier than flaws:
Because after this initiative many things become easier for us like online banking where we can do the online payment within seconds without going here and there so it saves money and time as well.
E-commerce: after digitalization shopping becomes easier we can buy anything, anytime so it also saves lots of time.
E learning: the people who can not afford money for coaching or any good institue now they can learn by e learning with very less money.
Corruption: Now there is no involvement of the third person for any transaction so corruption is also reduced.
Yes, you might have some chances of duping by hackers so you should take care of it and be smart.

Well,
We all are aware with digital India, Digital India is great initiative taken by our prime minister Narendra modi in 2015. Digital India is benifical for all individuals because now a days most of the people paying online electricity bill, gas bill etc from home it's save lots of time and also travelling fee. You can go anywhere without cash and pay online. Digital India gives risk free life if we are using it in a smart way other wise anyone will hack your account, take your personal data so beaware of that thing which is drawback of digitalization. Digital India also reduces the third party and make the innocent people life simple. Corruption is the measure part which is reduced by digitalization.

Digital India, if implemented just as planned, can actually make India stand apart from the other nations in a few years' time. Needless to say, it is beneficial to each and every citizen of our country, provided they understand their privileges and rights well. Here are some of the ways it helps people:
1. E-learning - With an eclectic range of open online courses and certified instructors offering to teach via the internet, this hassle-free learning is unprecedented. The flexibility of fee structure (some courses are even offered for free), timings and no-wastage of travel time makes this an extremely good option for poorer students, stay-at-home moms and anyone else interested to learn.
2. E-commerce - Benefits the consumers as it saves time, energy and is an efficient way to select from a range of products online and having the product delivered at their doorstep. Benefits the sellers as this doesn't allow for any undue advantage of location and transportation to companies.
3. E-banking - As obvious as this is, online transactions make hassle-free handling of money. Just having a phone to the supermarket is enough! Needless to say, this makes process transparent, and just like any other digitization, it saves a lot of time and energy.
4. E-sampark (Vernacular email service) - Not widespread yet, this facet of the Digital India campaign aims to align Non-English speakers with the digital world which largely uses English like in the e-mail IDs.
5. The BharatNet program launched by the Indian Government aims to strengthen internet services in the rural areas. Village People will be educated on digitization under the Digital India initiative so that nobody is left behind when it comes to development.
Having said that, it is imperative that the government take steps very carefully to implement this as the criminal mindset isn't getting any better. Just like people don't have to travel for shopping, so do robbers. The thriving internet can be used just as well for the evils like terrorism, scams, brainwashing, cyber-bullying, hacking and fraud. With our personal information now digitized, the threat increases. So it is very important for us as citizens of the country to be aware and cautious and for the Government to be concerned yet proactive.

First of all, I will thank to P. M. Modi who created in India. Digital India make us cashless money. You can do banking on social media. You can take a ticket by using of phone easily to go to the another place. You can view bank statement without visiting the bannk. You can transfer the funds.
Although there is a chance of cybercrime and you can lose your total money from your account.
