What is the Digital India Initiative?
The Digital India initiative mainly consists of three components that form the fundamental characteristics of the programme: universal digital literacy, delivering all government services to citizens digitally, and development of secure and stable digital infrastructure. The initiative also aims to connect rural areas with high-speed internet networks.
Government of India schemes such as BharatNet, Bharatmala, Startup India and Standup India, Make in India, Sagarmala, industrial corridors, UDAN-RCS, dedicated freight corridors, and E-Kranti are interconnected with the Digital India initiative
