Hackathon is a great way to disrupt the way we think. Can I lean on my 20 years of IT management experience and global exposure and request that the guidelines need to be sharp and clear for the hackathon. Emphasis should be on creativity, ingenuity and ability to worm out a problem than just copy a problem with a new solution. We need to harness critical thinking ability across spectrum and IT should be just a medium to solve the problems.

It is learnt that India can print 300 crore notes per month. So it will take 8 months to print 2400 crore notes.By this method we can print in 2 months .After 8 months (mean time India can print required notes)got can call back the pieces (rs 500 note) in stage by stage and ban them.

Sir, I support your fight against corruption. My suggestion. Print 4 pictures of mahatmagandhi on new rs 2000 note.After getting it from banks, the customer will cut it into 4 pieces. Each piece will have 1 mahatmagandhi picture and values rs 500. (2000÷4=500) so we can put 4 notes in circulation with 1 print. By this method we can put in circulation 4 times faster. Means we can put all required 2400 crore notes in 2 months instead 8 months in circulation. ...........................

Sir, The way demonitisation is going to be a tuning stone in the development of India I wish to submit that people are queing up for cash instead of distributing cash BANKS SHOULD ISSUE PREPAID RECHARGED CARDS and they can be used just like metro recharge cards are used and swipe machine should be made available to all the vendors even vegetable sellers.No tension of money.These cards can be recharged for any amount this will solve the problem once for all and no fear of hacking also.

dear PM,the only way to make digital India successful is to educate the people about the benefits and easiness of using digitization and for that we have to start it from primary schools.. put one subject of digitization which will include all the things like how it can be beneficial to the society and how to use such machines.. this will show effect in future and our youth will surely take in-trust in learning and even will educate there relatives and families.so implant as soon as possible.
