Our country and fellow men are going through a difficult phase since Nov 8,2016 which includes the rich, poor, leaders and common man on the street. We should agree that we have been living a life of abundance for some time now, post liberalization. Post the decision by the government it becomes important for all of us to think about the ideology behind the motive. If we feel it is right, let's do our part to support it not for self alone but look for others who need our help, may be a small shop owner, a vegetable vendor, our maids or gardeners, drivers or support staff.
Here is one awesome thought of increasing the penetration of internet / data usage by remote villages and digitize them. We see and hear that people at remote villages are unable to get into the digital band wagon because of mainly two reasons, I would say two parts - lack of literacy AND cost of data usage.
For the Second part - we can think of our telecom companies like Idea, Jio, Airtel setting up dedicated high bandwidth Mini-Wifi publishers (typically near the old banyan tree or बरगत का पेड़) meant for the whole remote village, free for the initial period of 3-6 months and then make it chargeable to the Panchayats, which can be then collected from the residents around through a nominal charges collected from the villagers. This will increase the level of digitization for governance, transfers and provide additional opportunities for their development as well
For the First part - The enablers, who would be the enablers bringing in literacy to these people living in there. We would for sure have to tap the literates in the villages else get people (MSW, BSW and students of other colleges) to enable them to use the technology for the betterment by doing dedicated projects.
These steps can ensure that the bullock and cart both are available at the right time to take the load off the shoulders and propel our country ahead.
Happy Thinking and Propel Ahead !!
