TODAY’S DIGITAL YOUTH A STEP TOWARDS DIGITAL INDIA
The
innovative, vibrant and dynamic youth is the most important section of the
population. They show strong passion, motivation towards their goal and
objectives. This energy of theirs empowers
them to be the most valuable human resource for swift development of a nation
in various dimensions whether it is economical, social, cultural
development. Youth population of a
country determines its potential and ability for growth. Youth is the huge resource
in our country’s economy which needs to be tapped intelligently for the
development of the society and nation.
Technology is also an important aspect for the
development of a nation, along with the youth.
In our economy, the central
government has understood and considered these two aspects for the nation
development. For the same, it has
introduced “Digital India Movement: power to empower”. The Digital India programme is a flagship
programme of the Government of India with a vision to transform India into a
digitally empowered society and knowledge economy. For the success of the digital India,
government spread the message with two campaigns: one was targeting university
students and other at people in rural areas.
After the execution of Digital India Movement, there
is a great hike in the population using internet in India and it has crossed
over 465 million and our country has been experiencing rapid strides of
progress with an evolving payments landscape, universal access to mobile connectivity,
online Aadhar card-linking, Public Internet Access Program, online ordering,
digital jobs and many more internet innovations.
Our youth is getting more
technical savvy and digital now a day’s despite of their literacy. They are using the online media and mobile
applications more frequently as compared with the previous generation. They are
also more digitally driven and want to avoid the personal interaction. They are glued to their mobile (smart) phone
which is driving our nation towards digitalization. Youth is involved on internet and technology
in such a way that they have forced the organisations also to launch their
digital interface and to take us a step ahead.
With the help of digital
movement, youth are also coming up with new ideas for the development of the
economic conditions like PAYTM, an initiative for the cashless economy, which
will help to reduce the cash holding cost in the economy. They also enforced the various industries to
provide a digital interface to them likewise banking industry, retailing
industry and other service industries too.
Into the banking industry,
digitalization has helped to avoid human error and thus it builds customer
loyalty. It also gives access to the
round the clock banking services due to online banking which is a strong pillar
for the economic growth.
Retailing industry, the most
growing industry in the economy due to digitalisation as it provide a user
interface to the user and it also provides the number of options to choose
without any time frame. Digitalisation
has provided a platform to the various online retailers to perform and bring
out a movement into the retailing through digital/ online retailing.
Ultimately, as youth is getting
more digitalised, it is giving a way to the development of the nation through
the development of various industries into the economy.
