Is the use of hardware allowed to solve certain problem statements where sensors might be needed? Also can anyone please clarify what mobile sensor input means? As in is it cellphone specific only, or can we use external sensors along? It would be very kind if this query gets responded as soon as possible. Thanks in advance!

Sir government should make compulsory to use digital payment in all Departments.Contract money given to contractor and firms have to be in digital mode or and also money given to government official/Department head to give it to contractor also have to be in digital form. So it will keep a record as how nuch budget is sanctioned to Department head and how much he had transferred to the contractor.Cash payment has to be stop completely. It will also reduce corruption

Advice all state registration/revenue offices to accept Digital payments for services like procuring an Encumbrance Certificates or old Land record details. This payment method could replace the revenue/court stamps that are being printed by state governments. This would also help citizens in paying the exact amount towards the services as the officials are charging more than the prescribed charges.
