अभी जैसा मोदीजी कैश लेस भारत की कहते हैँ तो क्या सभी राज्योँ की बस परिवहन सेवा मे टिकिट का लेन देन कार्ड के द्वारा ( बस मे कण्डक्टर से ) करने की विधा विकसित की जा सकती है . क्योँकि अभी तक मेरे जैसे कई व्यक्ति हैँ जो लाइन मे खडे होने की बजाय कैश लेस व्यवहारोँ मे ज्यदा यकीन करते हैँ . यह व्यवस्था ओन लाइन तो है लेकिन यदि कोई व्यक्ति किसी छोटे स्टेण्ड से बस या ट्रेन मेँ यात्रा करता है तो उसे नगदी की समस्या होगी . इसी तरह पे टी एम जैसी व्यवस्था आम आदमी कैसे प्राप्त करे

Dear Sir, govts drive towards cashless economy is welcome. However, one is dismayed to notice that since the last few days, the laptops of Doordarshan newsreaders carry a logo of PayTM. Advertisements on DD TV is ok, but has it to be on the newsreaders laptops, which gives a misleading impression of govt favouring one company ? The logo should be changed, may be with a govt or PSU advertisement.

Dear PM Sir, Even if I am the billionth person to do so, let me congratulate and thank you for the most decisive step to demonetise some currency notes. You have again very correctly taken the opportunity to encourage cashless transactions in the country. However, it is seen that stress is almost entirely on various digital modes of payment. Why ignore good old cheques ? Suitable measures to counter act cheque bounce should be taken to encourage cheque payments.

Dear Sir, All Gov. Subsidies and Benefits should be made available in respective citizens bank Account Only .We should move towards abolishing the PDS system currently much of the benefits gets siphoned off.Make available gov Coupons of various denominations to pay gov. appointed third party contractors so that revenue generated is not siphoned off by them.Economically marginalized section could be encouraged to move towards digital transactions by offering cheap Life Insurance.

sir my suggestion are : Deposite all the money seized/confiscate back in banks for circulation. as of now money kept throughout India kept in mal khanas of investigative agencies and lying idle and extra liability and staff to look after.(2nd idea)let the vehicle manufacture kept the sale/ownership data regarding each vehicle sold by them such as mobile phone sale/purchase is company/individual responsibility(3rd idea)incentivise the digital payment(4th idea) reduced the stamp duty to lowest.

Dear sir, I am a small businessman having small factory in Jamnagar. Let us form such a rule that richer person (with income of 15 thousand per month) can not transect in case except a few limit of cash, other below from that criteria have few more limit. In this regard we can bend in to cashless transaction.
