The role it plays on eradicating or reducing corruption must also be highlighted to them. The importance of the need to make India a digital economy needs to be spread among the masses,specially the daily wage sections of people, traders, businessmen,etc. Citizens need to be educated on how to use mobile and other applications to make digital transactions.

I believe that it is a great idea and it is very much possible to make India a digital economy. To begin with, the poorer and the uneducated must be made digital literate by creating awareness about the need to make India a digital economy. The benefits of going digital should be first highlighted to them and convince them that it is safe, secure and easy. The positive impact it has on economy and their lives must be conveyed to them.

गवर्नमेंट को कैशलेस को बढ़ावा देने के लिए। सब से पहले सभी सरकारी जगहों और private संस्थानों जैसे स्कूल, कॉलेज, हॉस्पिटल, NGO,industry ,शौपिंग मॉल , बिग बाजार, पेट्रोल पंप,etc में epayment को mandatory कर देना चाहिए।

जिस तरह से नोटबंदी के बाद कमीशन लेकर नोट लेकर पुराने नोट change किया जा रहा था, उसी तरह से अब ATM के बाहर खड़े लोगो में वो लोग भी है जिन लोगो ने अपने accout में दुसरो की ब्लैक मनी जमा किये थे, और अब वो नए नोट निकालकर उन्हें वापस कर रहे है। इसलिए जगह जगह नए नोट करोड़ो में पकड़े जा जा रहे है। सरकार को ऐसे अकाउंट पर नज़र रखनी होगी जिनमे से daily 2000 निकले जा रहे है। एक और बात नए 500 और 2000 के नोट को फिर ब्लैक किया जा रहा। इसलिए सरकार को सिर्फ 10, 20 और 50 ही छापना चाहिए। इन्हें छिपाना मुश्किल है।

Digital literacy and using digital platform are the best tools/method to fight against corruption. In this way I feel that farmers, poor people, rural population, small business men, small entrepreneurs are more victim of corruption since long time. They suffer for a small loan from banking system to avail small loan like KCC, CC for business etc. and ultimately take help of middle man. ............ see the attachment.

Dear Sir, Demonetisation of old Rs.500 and Rs.1000 notes is very good decision to make our country without corruption. My suggestion is about that is want to implement all transactions should be digital payment (Debit and Credit Card / Net banking) in all private agencies like schools and colleges, etc.,

Dear Sir, It's a very good decision to make our society cashless, but this should be implemented first then it should be followed by Demonetisation. Even it's not too late, the big merchants and organisations in each and every sector should be directed to accept only Digital Transactions. Also, Gov. Organisation and banks should not impose any transaction charges for digital payment including IRCTC. Only waving of transaction charges would be enough to promote digital transaction.
