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.

Through IoT Monitoring and controlling operations of urban and rural infrastructures is possible. Through GIS enabled devices the all infrastructure may be monitored on real time basis. Mainly it may be used to avoid Railway accident m, major road mishap and control the expenditure. No one will be allowed to compromise safety. IOT may be used to monitor remote health monitoring

Unified communication is another media where every department can talk ,chat and share all official work with each other. Even if you need to understand and get more clarity from any of staff of any department the way you can direct reach out him through internet communication tool and ask him/her to explain through share. You can do audio conference/video conference , do presentation, from any location in the world.There a lot can be possible through and cut the cost of telephone, etc.

Pl ask Ministry of Road Transport to devise a High Security Number Plates which has smart chip/ RFID embedded in it. A chip can be in the engine & DL as well. The RFID readers and cameras can be in the streets. People authorized to drive the vehicle can be modified online by owner. This will help police track the movement of vehicles & check stolen vehicles automatically by the IOT prompted devices. It will make city safe as we will be able to track movement of all vehicles at the time of crime.

Modi Ji, I have seen there are lot of water pond and lakes in our village and city. But 95 % are not managed properly. I have seen many lake which are well managed in Bangalore and used for Picnic spot. If possible can we mange those lake and ponds Which can be used for walk and other curriculum activity. In Less investment we can draw attention of public for good living standard.

Dear Modiji, Is it necessary to keep all the vehicle documents in wallet like RC. If you lost the wallet then all the important information is gone. Also keeping it in wallet also diminishes the print quality and later it becomes very difficult to justify that the RC you are carrying is for the vehicle you are riding on. Cant we associate all this information to a single account may be Aadhar / PAN. Even the cops can fetch the vehicle / owner information based on the vehicle Number.

Load skills development material on internet, to enable training of unemployed youth, in situ, to make them employable; in professions like medical technician, electrician, machine operator, welder......The practical training could be imparted during periodic visits to industry and finally during probation. The quality needs 100% Modi discipline to make them productive, whether in India or abroad.
