Good morning everyone.
The Cashless economy means paperless money. Which is now very common so first talk about its merits.
It's paperless money. And it's easy to carry & use everywhere. It's like your money in card and phone. No one takes it without your permission and its safe and secure also.
If we talk about demerits. Not every person know how to use mobile or cards for payment and especially in rural area. Also in someplace, there is no system for the card and online payment. Where paper money is needed.

Every coin has its two sides, so the topic which we are discussing also has its pros and cons. Here are some of the points which I am giving.
PROS:
1. Digital transactions or money transfers using a credit card, debit card, atm cards and UPI has reduced the corruption in India.
2. Tax evasion is undoubtedly one of the main concern which is pushing our country towards poverty, imbalance of development and unemployment. Through digital transactions, the government is getting all set taxes.
3. It has also reduced the terrorists funding.
CONS:
1. India has abundance of illiterates who are unknown of how to use the digital transactions.

Hi good morning.
The Cashless economy is best preferred for our country since we are used to using cash in most of our transaction.
We use cash because it doesn't flow through the system and is not taxed.
Due to this notion of ours, the country is collecting fewer taxes and overall cash printing cost have gone up but it seems to not flow through the financial system which is bad for the country in every way.
With a cashless economy which is at all-time high tax collection, which the government can use the extra income for more welfare schemes, and also educate the rural masses on benefits of cashless society and also giving them incentives for going cashless.

Everything has two sides. So as the topic which we are discussing "THE CASHLESS ECONOMY" it has also its pros and cons. So I am just giving some of my points.
PROS:
1. It will boost the digital transactions including debit card/credit card, ATM transfers, UPI, or any type of transfers which helps in reducing corruption.
2. Digital transactions helps getting the tax system transparent more tax revenue can be generated.
3. It helps in reducing the cost incurred on printing the paper notes. (The very high amount is spent on producing currency notes.
4. Cashless economy reduces the terrorist funding.
CONS:
1. Illiteracy level is slightly high in India which restricts the effective use of this.

The Cashless economy plays a making and India digital. As every coin pros and cons cashless has also two sides. Cashless economy helps to reduce corruption because of the digital transaction. It also helps in digital India. A cashless economy is more secure than bringing money with ourselves. In an emergency cashless transcation helps a lot. While traveling also it is more benficial because no one can our debit card. Because of that we don't have burden of stealing money. It also helps in GDP growth.

In my point of view, The advantage of a cashless economy is very important Step or part of making digital India. This program also reduces or prevent being stolen by theft & making peoples safe. The Internet is playing a very role & it is needed to making a cashless economy.
However, the peoples are coming from rural area & uneducated peoples are facing some problem. But for future it's provides great towards India.

In that subject, my opinion is a cashless economy obviously in benefits but some of the time there is a network problem. Due to this network problem, we can't use this opportunity. Most of the people thought ki I have not to need to carry the money but suppose unfortunately this network problem arrive then what they will do and also if there is no ATM.
So that's why carry the cash with a limit so that not facing that type of problem.
I also add one thought here rural area people and uneducated people can't use this type of opportunity why? I think we are thinking negatively why they should not learn I think online shopping not so difficult but we are just thinking they can't they can't then it never possible and India never becomes digitalize and develop so I think each and every human can use this cashless economy and enjoy it but be careful.

As we all know that our government is in the process of making India digital, so cashless economy is also a part of digital India. Cashless less economy is one of the best idea implemented by our Indian government. People can make transactions anywhere and anytime without carrying cash. Carrying cash is a very risky thing, as it increases the chances of theft and being stolen. By cashless economy people don't have to worry about carrying cash and being stolen. Though it is a smart move for making India develop but we can't ignore its demerits. People from rural area are not so educated and don't have much udea about technology. They may suffer problems and online transactions also have a risk of online frauds.
So, cashless economy is definitely a great move towards making India technology based but we can't even ignore the problems related with it presently.

Hello. Good afternoon.
This program inaugurated by our PM Narendra Damodardas Mod in the year of 8th Nov 2016.
My opinion, now a generation Aadhar has been using every field for Identification. It's not hacked easily, but nowadays crime in every sector going on Increase. So Aadhar is not secured. Our high court announced that Aadhar is not compulsory for all activities.
So, I think Aadhar is not necessary or not safe for us.
Thank you.
