There are difficulties for the people reaching KSR Metro, as the counter made for this purpose will normally have some or other issues. Hence I recommend to provide facility to get platform ticket through any non-cash payment using IRCTC or other Railway portals. SMS received itself can be treated as Platform ticket. This will facilitate public in general.

With due respect, I would recommend the complete digitization og Indian Post Office. Even in modern era, they are not accepting the cheque payment of more than Rs.20000 however ready to accept the payment in cash.They should provide online facility like other banking system.It will help the Govt.in generating more revenues and connecting with more customers.

To create a digital world what we need first is the energy and there are lots of villages where people don't have electricity even today. In order to use the full capacity of the people residing there, we must promote the source of energy which do not require much investments and can be created from locally available resources like wind/water/sun/waste/Biogas. While promoting the industries we must focus on small scale skill development programs to train people to create tools for better economy

namaste sir सर मेरा एक सुझव हे की प्रशाशनिक सेवा की तैयारी करने बाले बहुत से विद्यार्थी जो एक दो अंकों से रह जाते हे और इतना ज्ञान होने के बाद भी उनके पास कोई काम नहीं होता। यदि उन विद्यार्थियों को सरकारी स्कूल में शिक्षक के रूप में भर्ती किआ जाए तो निश्चित ही स्कूल में पड़ने वाले विद्यार्थी और प्रशानिक सेवा की तैयारी कर चुके लोगो को दोनों को बहुत फायदा होगा। एक को नौकरी मिल जाएगी और दूसरे को एक बहुत अच्छा और जानकार शिक्षक। सर इस मुद्दे पर बहुत गहराई से सोचने की आवश्यकता है।धन्यवाद्।

We need to put in place a robust & permanent mechanism for cyber security -ensuring safety of digital data,financial or otherwise.Setting up of effective & foolproof cybersecurity framework will make adoption of e transactions that much more acceptable for the masses.ITexperts,cyberlaw experts,cyberpolice,Ministry for Cyber Security??,should be set up to this end.Also intntnl agency on lines of Interpol should be created for cyber security.
