माननीय मोदी जी, हार्दिक अभिनन्दन, भ्रष्टाचार मुक्त भारत के लिए नोट बंदी करने के लिए धन्यवाद. मोदी जी आपके द्वारा देश हित में जो फैसला लिया गया उसका सभी भारतीय स्वागत करते है..परन्तु इस फैसले को पूर्ण तैयारी के साथ लागु करना चाहिये था. आज जमीनी स्तर पर नोट बंदी के कारण काफी दिक्कते आ रही है....माननीय मोदी जी डिजिटल इंडिया का सपना कैसे साकार हो सकता है जबकि आज में हमारे देश की 80% गाँवो की जनसँख्या स्मार्टफोन चलाना नहीं जानती. वो कैशलेस लेनदेन कैसे करे???

Dear PM Modiji, My suggestion is to show Advertisements on TV using the Mobile for bank transactions and payments. All smartphone adds only show how good the camera is but never show the actual need of SmartPhone. Also banks should have LCD screens outside or inside with a Video about using E Banking system through Mobile and Internet. Ask all E-wallet companies to advertise on using E wallet apps on how to use. People will get encouraged to learn and start using it. Thank You, Arun

Sir Now everyone is getting the taste of vyavstha pariwartan. Congress and other parties are worried because what they made is vanishing. I want to thank and congratulate my pm for the same. I am a government employee and I will be happy to work with my pm still I'm working with him, but I'll be more than happy if given a chance to work with my pm directly. Sir if possible please give me a chance. Thanking you Yours faithfully Ajay Sahu

1)cashless transaction not possible without E-learning. PG level IT students are aware about cashless transaction and all cashless services, if universities are give projects or marks to student for camping in villages about teaching cashless technologies to villagers then can be we will become cashless society. 2)public required one trusted e-wallet issued by gov for only on money transaction. 3)need to cashless transaction machines to traffic police and gov offices. #MyGov

Wouldn't it be great if the govt could provide a framework for each school kid to work on a unique problem each year, like STD 1 would work on ideas to make India more cleaner while STD 10 would work on a solution to make India more productive in agriculture and it should be nation wide and they should be given a year to work on their solution just like a yearly project. And a nationwide competition will make kids be more innovative.

Dear Sir, one suggestion to handle current situation at banks is, please let all banks send sms alerts to their customers at what time slot/interval they should come to bank to collect cash and a separate time slot for senior citizens as well as this would eliminate unnecessary queues at banks and the whole process would go smooth comparatively. Let everyday banks display total cash received to dispense to customers as this would give idea of how may would get cash and sms alerts when no cash.

Dear Sir, DEMONETIZATION of 500 and 1000 is a brave move by you and appreciate it. But don't give too many chances to black money holders as this 50% and 85% thing is a 3rd chance to them as this is to curb and seize black/unaccounted/counterfeit money hence no more chances. And immediate DIGITIZATION would not be a great idea i feel sir.For the use of plastic money, e-banking etc.people should be given time to get accustomed to it.Please bring in smaller denomination notes into rotation asap..

For making cashless transactions possible, firstly we need to make everyone habitual of this and it is possible if all governmental services such as bus fare, train fare, bill payement, etc., must have compulsation to be payed in cashless medium. For getting results faster government need to work on this in the starting of 2017.
