The digital space has witnessed major transformations in the last couple of years and as per industry experts would continue to evolve itself. The latest entrant to the digital space is the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT can also be defined as interplay for software, telecom and electronic hardware industry and promises to offer tremendous opportunities for many industries.

With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), the number of connected sensors soon will reach trillions, working with billions of intelligent systems involving in-numerous applications will drive new consumer and business behaviour. The demand for increasingly intelligent industry solutions based on IoT will drive trillions of dollars in opportunity for IT industry and even more for the companies that take advantage of the IoT.

One of the top most initiatives in the form of Digital India Program of the Government which aims at ‘transforming India into digital empowered society and knowledge economy’, is expected to provide the required impetus for development of the IoT industry ecosystem in the country.

Department of Electronics and Information Technology,(DeiTY) has come out with a draft IOT Policy document which focuses on following objectives:

i. To create an IoT industry in India of USD 15 billion by 2020. It has been assumed that India would have a share of 5-6% of global IoT industry.

ii. To undertake capacity development (Human & Technology) for IoT specific skill-sets for domestic and international markets.

iii. To undertake Research & development for all the assisting technologies.

iv. To develop IoT products specific to Indian needs in all possible domains.

The Policy framework of the IoT Policy has been proposed to be implemented via a multi-pillar approach. The approach comprises of five vertical pillars (Demonstration Centres, Capacity Building & Incubation, R&D and Innovation, Incentives and Engagements, Human Resource Development) and 2 horizontal supports (Standards & Governance structure).

To read the policy document please refer the following URL:http://deity.gov.in/sites/upload_files/dit/files/Draft-IoT-Policy%20%281...

We invite your attention and comments to further improve the draft policy to create ecosystem for IoT industry in the country.

Last date for sending your suggestions is 31st October 2014.

ये सन्देश में करप्शन को रोकने के लिए आपको लिख रहा हूँ | जैसे की हमने देखा है, ज्यादा तर भ्रष्टाचार किसी सरकारी सौदों में या किसी तरह के टेंडर पास होने पर होते हैं | इस तरह के किसी भी व्यवहार में जो पैसे का लेंन देंन होता है उसे पुरे पारदर्शिता के साथ ऑनलाइन website पर दिखाया जाय | रुपये का इनफ्लो और ऑउटफ्लो पूरा चेक द्वारा होना चाहिए कोई भी व्यक्ति इसे ऑनलाइन चेक कर सके ऐसी व्यवस्था करें | कौनसा टेंडर किस भाव में पास हुआ है इसकी पूरी जानकारी होनी चाहिए जिससे उस टेंडर के दूसरे कॉम्पिटिटर भी देख

What is our government doing for skyrocketing increase in prices of mobile internet ?? Even BSNL the government own statutory body has increased the rate of mobile internet exorbitantly. This is the key hindrance towards National E-Governance Plan. Why government is acting blind?? At least BSNL should pave the path of e -governance, but it is quite unfortunate that the Govern. Owned brand itself is engaged in making money ?? What is the government is doing for the whole problem ??

Local police normally discouraged citizens from filing FOR. I think it should be made on-line. Anyone can file complain/ FIR on a web portal and it should be the responsibility of the respective Thana to ensure physical registration of the same and further investgation. This will ensure smooth registration of complaints of all nature.

The draft of IOT Policy should focus on the research and development of the enabling infrastructure for IOT including data storage and analytics infrastructure powered by cloud computing and low power sensors/devices. The MeghRaj Cloud initiative (cloud.gov.in) can be leveraged for this. Subsequent efforts can focus on applications of IOT for various domains. In my recent textbook on IOT, (internet-of-things-book.com), I have described how IOT can make make these domains "smarter".

Dear Mr. Modi, In incredible India, PAN made mandatory in every sector of a common man & Govt gets tax IN TIME & INSTANTLY in the form of TDS. But the same common man doesn't gets benefits for the tax paid in time due to Corruptions & Malpractices in every offices like Corporations, PWD Etc; So, why not offer discount in the tax range of 25 to 30% FOR ALL CITIZENS WHO POSSESS PAN CARD in all sectors, so that the common man also gets benefit instantly & IN TIME ?? PLS GIVE SERIOUS THOUGHT ON THIS

आदरणीय प्रधानमंत्री जी, हरियाणा में रात के समय अपने‍‍‍ अपने घरों से लोग मैन बिजली लाइन पर अवैध रूप से तार डाल कर बहुत अधिक मात्रा में बिजली की चोरी करते हैं जिसके परिणामस्वरूप बिजली की बड़े रूप से हानि होती है जिसका पूरा बोझ गाँव के उन सब लोगो पर ही पड़ता है जोकि बिना किसी बिजली चोरी के अपना पूरा बिल समय पर चुकाते है | इसलिए मेरी आप से प्रार्थना है कि जितना जल्दी हो सके इस चोरी की आदत पड़े हुए लोगो को आप सबक सिखाने हेतु अपने प्रशासन के लोगो को तैनात करें| यह शीघ्रता हम सबके हेतु अति सुखप्रद होगी|

For Business or Professional; impliment the same rule as in Electricity METER & Tarrif... charge on uses basis. And this will generate lots of revenu dorect in INDIA Govaccount.
