Digital India—The Need of the hour

D igital India is the one of the great vision of our beloved Prime Minister—Sri Narendra Modiji. The technological advancement directly influences the growth in digital

domain. Under the Digital India vision, the aim of the Government is to ensure that Government services are made available to citizens electronically by improving online infrastructure and by increasing Internet connectivity or by making the country digitally empowered in the field of technology. This leads the country into a digitally empowered knowledge economy. Vision Of Digital India:

Digital Infrastructure as a Utility to Every Citizen.

Governance & Services on Demand in digital form

Digital Enable / Empowerment of Citizens Social media , smart phones are the strong path to reach out the larger set of our population. The people in the rural part of our country are also getting equal prominence for using ICT *Information, Commuincation & Technology+ enabled services. Almost everyone on Facebook changing their profile pictures to support digital India but to make it reality here are list of challenges in the implementation of digital India. Challenges are in every sector right from policy making, changing the work flow up to changing the mentality of the government officers. It is technological change within the most diversified nation. Few of them have been listed below: High level of digital illiteracy: Digital illiteracy is prevalent in most of the towns and villages in India. Cities have adopted digitalization but limited to certain extent. Full fledged digitalization is cashless transaction on daily basis, use of internet services to get government certificates. Connectivity to remote areas: It is a mammoth task to have connectivity with each and every village, town and city. The problem of connectivity is a complex issue because every state has different laws pertaining to its execution. Also it is challenging for the central authorities to make a database where such a huge information can be stored. Compatibility with center state databases: Every state has different internet protocols because every state is diversified. Diversified not only in the sense of religion but also in language.

Cyber Crime: There is cyber threat all over the globe and digital India will not be any exception. Hence we need a strong anti cyber crime team which maintains the database and protects it round the clock Inter Departmental Co ordination: Within the government there are various departments which should be integrated. Integration has technical as well as corporate issue. Finance: Though there are resources with India but there is a huge capital cost which is to be invested and the fruits of the investment will be received after few years. Net neutrality: Net neutrality is must and we should make sure that digital India without net neutrality would be a great blow to entrepreneurs and citizens of India. Changing the mindset: People are accustomed with years of same of practice that they are not ready to change. Mental preparedness for change is very much essential. Exchange of information: The information stored should also be used by other government offices. We all support Digital India but we should be aware of the dangers and setbacks, so that we can prepare ourselves for the upcoming challenge. We should be mentally prepared for the changes and challenges in implementing the policy, only then it would be possible to change it to reality.
