Dear PM My suggestion is to start m-wallet SIM(mobile wallet SIM) where SIM is linked with new bank account no .These SIMs are available at retail shop/at banks.Debit cards are to be given with these SIMs.When money is transferred to another person SIM,instead of account no,his name is displayed so shopkeeper is to be easy who has given him money.Company give sms to the person for day to day transaction so shopkeeper are easy to track income and expenditure for the day.

Hello sir, On the topic of cashless transaction. I would like to suggest finger print system for payment. Right now jio sim are issued based on finger print scanner which collect our data from adhaar card. By using the same technology one could pay the daily expense as adhaar card is already link to his bank account. So by introducing this we don't have go for card payment. Of course this idea need to some enhancement like adding an additional authentication like request pin no as well.

Respected Sir, On the way of Cashless Society the main difficulty is cyber crime and charges levied by POS machine on each swipe, which is not acceptable by a shopkeeper. In my view, e-wallet can become a good way for keeping foundation for cashless society. Now a day each bank is having its e-wallet which is being used by its customer only. Imagine if register user of one bank e-wallet will be allowed to pay other banks e-wallet, the difficulty will move away. Plz make it possible with NPCI

I dream of a country where I can leave without touching the things used in performing crime. We always try to avoid criminal and never touch the things suspected as criminal's things. I Then why we are forced to touch the paper notes used by the criminal in performing dangerous crime as kidnappings, murders, militant activities,,,. So I request my Govt to gift me a society where I can spend my days without touching the things used by the criminal. So gift me a cashless society.

Dear PMO It would be beneficial if the public could pay court fee and police spot fines through electronic transfer such as credit or debit card and payment services like freecharge and paytm. This will help them in times like this. If the honorable PM could make an announcement on this regard it will be helpful for the public and allow police forces to purchase the technology requirements as soon as possible. Thank you
