To encourage JAN BHAGIDARI and to make the procedure of budget formation transparent, the Union Ministry of Finance has decided to invite suggestions for Union Budget 2017-18. As you may recall, this has been a regular feature on MyGov for the last two years.

Citizen from all walks of life are welcome to be a part of the budget making process. You can submit your suggestions either directly in the comments box or attach a PDF document.

Last year we had an overwhelming response with over 40,000+ suggestions for Union/ Railway budget. Several of the suggestions received on MyGov were incorporated in the last year’s budget. To know more about these, click here.

We seek your valuable ideas to continue the tradition of the Union Budget incorporating the citizens’ aspirations. The last date for submissions on this forum is 20th January, 2017.

4) Fear of tracking by government agencies - Steps should be taken to remove the fear of government agencies tracking their financial details. Some promise from FM/PM for common man.

3) Incentives for Digital payments (Carrot approach) - Unless there is an incentive nobody will be bothered to pay digitally especially sub hundred rupees amount. Government should provide income tax benefits. A seperate section probably where IT benefits can be availed only on spending a certain amount through digital payments. eg. If I spend 50K digitally I will get tax benefits for that amount.This section can be capped to 20-25K initially and increased at a later stage.

2) Time taken to pay the amount - most people have 2G Internet connection. Hence the time taken to pay through digital wallet is atleast 30 seconds whereas cash payment takes negligible time. I would suggest the Infosys model of payment. It connects ID card with an ICICI Digital wallet and takes less than a second to pay. Its a hugely impressive model.

Shortcomings/Point of Improvements for less cash economy: 1) Trust deficit - Instead of directly connecting Savings Account with a digital payment app focus should be on creating digital wallets. People should be able to transfer money from Bank Account to Wallet. This will make people to think that even in case of hacking it is only the wallet which gets affected. Comprimise of Wallet is always better than comprimise of Bank Account data.
