Sir, I suggest you please digitalize all Central Govt. Offices and Departments at first instance. All of your Departments like Postal and Telecom, Railways are not fully digitalized. Cashless Transactions not implemented by even your Postal Department. No person is able to get postal Stamps and IPOs etc without cash. I do not understand why your cabinet Ministers are silent to implement digital and cashless Transactions. Then ask people to convert digital and cashless Transactions.

I believe that planners did not expect long queues for 40 days in banks after 8th Nov., 2016. It may be that India has little expertise on BEHAVIORAL ECONOMICS. There is not even one university in India offering any course in this field. In many developed nations, its importance is realised and its tenets used in everyday policies and decisions. The problems of demonetization may be partly due to this void. We need to analyze the causes / faults of the plan to avoid the same in future.

The nation is passing thru turbulence of demonetization. Some things have gone astray. A lot of negative impact can be erased IF the culprits caught with old and new currency since 8th Nov., '16 are promptly punished. Otherwise, it may boomerang.

For Banking / online transactions / Rtgs to be 24 hrs * 7 days * 365 days to ensure smooth less cashless operations on banking holidays / national holidays. For all government organisations / departments to accept fees / taxes / duties / charges through online fund transfer from all types of banks ( public, private and others ) ; not just PSU banks.

technologies that human capital is expert in but are not state of the art. In the long run I think it will cost the country if the 2nd step is followed.So,I think their is a dire need for workshops and training students in the university rather than at company once they are hired.This will also help Students learn about technologies if they want to be entrepreneurs. #SmartIndiaHackathon2017 #MyGov

Sir, This is a great initiative by the government.But,I think Government should conduct some workshops to go hand in hand with this.This should be on technologies that are being used by industries today.I think we are creating some great engineers in our country but the technologies that they are being trained in are not state of the art.So,Now companies have 2 choices 1)Train them in new technologies and employ them in technologies that they are not experts in. 2)Build their projects with
