Union Minister Rajeev Chandrashekhar On Digital India

"We are not really enforcing any India model but turning the head that tech was for rich countries and we have to run to Big Tech for that. We want to turn the narrative that India DPI is open source, no one owns it and it's for the people. The UPI is a solution to solve corruption and leakage. PM Modi came with Jan Dhan Accounts, DBT, and then UPI evolved. It's a vibrant ecosystem.

"One big difference between how tech has been viewed in post and pre-2014 India. Pre-2014, it was about jobs, investment and just a part of the general economy. Post-2014, there's a conscious effort to include tech in governance. In nine years, we have spent Rs 5-6 lakh crore in e-governance. Post-2014, we had a leader to use max tech in governance. Now we have Aadhar, UPI, DigiLocker and if that vision had not been in place, during Covid, we could've had a very difficult time. It helped us a lot during the pandemic," Mr Chandrashekhar said.
