The vision of the government to make India a USD 30-trillion developed economy by 2047 requires channelization of the demographic dividend and turning job-seekers into job-providers. Talent available is the biggest promise that can realized by utilizing the opportunities around the range of emerging technologies. MeitY's approach aims to bring this about by building Digital Public Infrastructure rooted in inclusivity, accessibility, innovation and bridging of the Digital divide.
