Sir, I wish to suggest that if popular digital wallets support Hindi, then the digital literacy among the rural population will get a boost. Also, it will be great to have brief tutorial on your app in Hindi on how to use wallets/UPI. I have been teaching people of nearby villages how to use wallets and the fact that they do not support Hindi is a major roadblock.

Respected sir, the current population of our country is near about 134 crore while china is top with 138 crore.India is projected to be the world most populous country by 2022. Hence necessary action should be taken urgently.According to Joseph Stalin, the easiest way to gain control of population is to carry out acts of terror .The public will clamor for such laws if their personal security is threatened.

1. Digi-payments to be simplified for the uneducated masses. Current solution for push button phones expects the sender to know the bank acct number and IFSC code 2. Post offices to double up as permamnent Aadhar card centres and for linking up bank acct nos with Aadhar cards or for Aadhar based banking transactions. Simple hand help biometric devices be made available to postmen for helping reach the remotest corners of the country 3. Network protocols supporting very low telecom signals
