On 1 July 2015, the Government of India launched a massive campaign named "Digital India".
AIM- The main aim was to improve access to technology to the people of the country.
Digital India has helped people to get government services online and, they can post their complaints online to the government.

They are also helping us in making our country digital, they are providing free WIFI to remotes areas with the help of drones etc and this has helped India by generating jobs, reducing the cost of import for all the necessary equipment. Digital Technologies include Cloud Computing and Mobile Applications which have emerged as the main reason for rapid economic growth.
Digital India will change the face of many states,
For example, Himachal Pradesh where many basic things such as the health care system, education and online business. Due to digital India people who do online banking has also increased to a very large extent.

Yashank- Hello suhird, it’s great to see you again
Suhird – Hi, it's great seeing you too, how long has it been? It must be more than 6 months. I'm doing good. How about you?
Yashank- Not too bad
Suhird- What is new?
Yashank- Well I wanted to meet you because I really want to talk to you about my friend.
Suhird- Okay
Yashank- Well, He doesn’t bring his books and disturbs others during study hours. He keeps on speaking and never lets other study. Due to him, I am not able to concentrate in class.
Suhird- Did you try to talk to him?
Yashank-Yes but he neither listens to me nor my friends.
Suhird- Do teachers know about him?
Yashank- I guess, but they just ignore him while they are teaching.
Suhird – why don’t you try talking to him again?
Yashank- I have done several times, but he still doesn’t pay attention.
Suhird- I think you should talk to his class teacher about him. Since they have more experience than us in handling students.
Yashank- OKAY, it sounds like a good idea. I will also ask him to make the subject more interesting and practical so that he is able to concentrate more on his studies.
Suhird- Do you need help with anything else?

Information technology enables peeople to do their work outside thier workplace (e.g. at home, when travelling, etc.). do the benefits of this mobility outweigh the disadvantages?
The contentious argument that whether organizations can solicit personal information from job seekers in an employment application has sparked a heated debate among many. In this essay, I will illustrate the merits and demerits of such practice by employers and then provide my own opinion.
On the one hand, there are benefits to organizations in acquiring information about a prospective employee, including his hobbies, marital status, et cetera. The primary advantage is that the multinational corporations can gauge whether an applicant is a best-fit or not for a vacancy by asking for his or her personal data. For instance, a position that requires travelling frequently to various metropolitan cities in the world will not be a good-fit for married people because of their marital commitment. In addition, an organization can increase its employee retention rate by enquiring about a potential hire’s hobbies and interests. For example, a financial analyst who is fond of latest gadgets would be excited to work for a high tech corporation rather than another applicant who despises an advanced device.
On the other hand, there are some cons in employers seeking personal information from job applicants. First of all, an organization may inadvertently drive away the best qualified candidate who has privacy concerns by asking for one’s hobbies, interests, marital status, et cetera. Moreover, some employers may resort to discriminatory practices by selecting potential hires based on their personal preferences. For instance, an interviewer who despises a game of cricket may overlook an applicant whose passion is to play with a bat and ball.
Having considered a range of arguments, I firmly believe that the merits of an organization seeking personal information from job candidates outweigh the drawbacks; employers can match applicants to the vacancies and increase employee retention rates.
