1). digital literacy starts after physical literacy. 2). digital literacy is of value when in physical India there is NO Caste Based Reservation and only Merit should be the criteria 3). Digital India means tracking of all the files and forwarding all the file should be digital and there must be time limit for each and every officer / table. 4). digital proof should be valid all over india, why to waste money in xerox & true copy 5). for bill & amendments there must be suggestion from public.

Respected P.M sir, Make it compulsary for shopkeepers or people who are sitting in market that they should card swip machines or paytm on their shops if they are in market.There are a lot of people who want to pay with cards but the shopkeepers refuse. Specially in towns or small citys where they earn a lot but dont pay any tax thats why they are not taking online paymants. Same cases are with private hospitals and petrol pumps in small citys. I hope this will definatly help us.

Dear Modi Ji, The Farmers of India need a solution to their farming needs. This is felt much in the need of fertilizers for their seedlings to give a good yield. My contribution is a proposal to provide free fertilizers to farmers across the nation. I have put forward the idea as a narrative idea which could developed further into a very comprehensive plan involving all the resources in a big way. Hoping that the idea would contribute to Nation building. Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan , Jai Vigyan.

Our problem is not lack of ideas, we have all the ideas possible for digital payments and we are good at it.... what we are lacking is communicating to people why we are doing it....Once people get the idea why we are doing it..... they will embrace it.....put a proper PR mechanism and communicate effectively to people that cashless transactions will make India developed nation...people will work for you...not you working for them...

TOLL @ highways-FASTTAG - Toll companies must keep their boom barriers for FASTTAG lane open if for some reason their FAST TAG readers does not work. I have seen many tolls where fast tag hardly works and they don't make any visible effort to correct it and start collecting cash instead. Avoiding loss of revenue will be their incentive to keep FASTAG working all the time.

Suggestion to reduce the corruption in govt. Department, Usually people pay bribe to get there work done fast. If there is scheme like 'Tatkal' or urgent with higher fees and good service, people will sure pay directly to the goverment instead of middleman & broker, who generate corruption in all fields and this payment could be made through digital means too.

Law and Order personnel and Home department personnel in Telangana state are not functioning properly. Most of the Police Stations are not accepting complaints from people who approach in confidence the police and also not registering FIR on the anti social elements who cause loss and damage to the innocent people. Most often police are found to be siding the anti social elements as they fall prey to the bribe. The innocent are all times affected with the aggressive attitude of police.

No exams on paper, but in field, 1-all PSU recruitment should be based on projects. 2- all the faculty pay should be based on projects. 3- all the fund towards education should be into Labs, libraries, and projects. 4- all PSU's should be involved in encouraging projects of their importance. 5- competitive exams must be the eligibility of one's knowledge but not employability, just scholarship's should be given based on the score but not salary. 6**-All unique projects should be awarded.
