In 2014, Digital India, a marquee initiative by government of India, started with three key goals: provide quality digital infrastructure to every citizen, provide all public services digitally on-demand and empower citizens digitally to enable them to participate fully in a rapidly digitalising economy and society. Fast forward to today, India is now the global leader in digital payments with transactions crossing the $1 trillion mark in value during 2021-22.
Digital India must now transform itself in both scale and scope to achieve the target of a $1 trillion digital economy by 2026 and make India a global leader in advanced digital technologies.
This year’s edition of DIGITAL INDIA VISION 7.0 campaign aims to connect all dots like digital infrastructure, digital government, electronics manufacturing, and modern digital laws with a focus on digital privacy, cyber security, capacity building and skilling to catalyse new India’s techade.
