Lot of workers in organized and unorganized sector work under various departments, PSUs institutions of government. Government may ask all these organizations to depute one or more suitable persons on voluntary basis as technology coordinators who apart from their regular duties are willing to teach every one in their area how to use e-wallet or UPI for cash less transactions. This shall be particularly useful for people who are near the bottom of hierarchy and contractual workers.

We can promote digitization in India only when it provides an integrated approach to the various initiatives taken by the government, so that they work in tandem to provide benefit to the people of this country. For example, we can integrate the current banking network with the UIDAI linked Aadhar Card and use the demonetization initiative currently taken up by the government to plan, implement and fund a social insurance scheme for each and every Indian. One such plan has been sent to PMO.

Dear Prime Minister, You are giving a great service to the nation. Small suggestion. Please distribute tokens to the people who are standing in Queues outside ATMs and in Banks. Simple token is to put a date stamp on small piece of paper and write number. Many people lost their lives because of standing in queues. This small measure will make a positive difference. Regards, Shrirang
