A digitalisation is a good approach for citizens of our country.

1. It reduces time and standing in a long queue.
2. One can book a ticket online by apps like irctc and uts.
3. Transparency and monitors black money.
4. As today nearly 65% of people have access to the internet so it becomes easy for transferring money by e-services provided by all banks instead of going to bank or atm.

But it has one demerit its easy for hackers if awareness among masses about cybercrime is not sufficient but conventional robbery and theft reduces.

Well, For now, Digital India might not be proven that much rewarding, but it surely will in the coming years. So who all are being benefited, only rich? I don't think so, I personally have witnessed many of my friends and relatives from my village having access to social media, not only gents but also ladies. I am not saying all of them but every household at least have more than 2 smartphone users. This clearly Indicates that people there are getting connected and updated through internet which is surely a good indication.

If anyone from a family is updated with news and information, it will widen his thinking.

We must understand that Digital India is not only limited to Digital payments and all.

The rate at which the rural population adapting the Digitalisation will surely benefit the whole society weather in terms of Payments, access to Information and technology or connecting with people around.

It has primarily benefiting the urban areas than rural areas.

Because lack of awareness and use of technologies.

They are more prone to get fooled.

Digital India just benefits the rich and not the poor, even to buy a small items on a road side shop we need cash. Just because making everything digital for tax concern we are making a poor suffer.

Digital India is a great initiative by the government. World needs digitization, so people need to upgrade themselves. Digital India is with a motive to go ensure that government services are made available to people around the country and through this internet connectivity is also provided to all the places around the country.

The government works which took many days to be done are now done in minutes by online. Some departments have published their websites by which people by sitting at home can do their work.

Digital India is also ensured to build a cashless economy.

India launched digital india, it is very useful for citizens, while transfering money from one account to another account and for that purpose we consume less time by using digital India. Citizens also used so many electronical networks for fast generation. Digital India is very useful for so many transactions and also it is taken less time. Digital India is used for tickets booking, buying clothes, and some other payments also paid by using digital India. There are some disadvantages also there in digital India that is some other people don't know how to use this in a proper way, so it is time taken to learn about digital India for uneducated persons, finally I said it is very useful for everyone and also our time saves while using digital India.

Digital India is a campaign launched by the Indian government to provide services electronically via the internet. Upsides might include:

1) Electronic transfer of money from one account to another.
2) Control the flow of black money as we can monitor the flow of digital money.
3) Easy government related services like registering a or getting the status of a complaint.
4) Saves paper, hence saving the environment.
5) Saves time.

While some downsides are:
1) Opening ourselves to hackers.

Well, digital India is one of the most highlighted and stressed upon scheme of the Modi government for all the right reasons. It has loads and loads of benefits for common people. You need not to travel distances and stand in a queue just to deposit or withdraw even a small amont of money. We have a record of all our past transactions and balances. Being digital can help us mark our position on the global level. It is fast effective and efficient. But being a country which deals mostly in the cash it will take time for people to accept and learn it. We need to educate people about its benefits and consequences as well. The risk of hacking and getting the information leaked is large enough to make people hesitant in accepting this whole heartedly.

Digitalisation is beneficial for the country's economic development and development of a nation directly means the development of its people.

In today's scenario, life is so busy. Digitalisation doesn't only save our time but it's an easy and economical way. INDIA is going towards a digital India that will definitely help our country to be a more powerful nation.
