Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Dear Shri RaviShankar Prasadji,


3 years back, Shri Modiji said :



DIGITAL INDIA rests on the following : JAM ( Jan Dhan A/c – Aadhar ID – Mobile Number )



It is high time we add to these : EWA ( Email ID – WhatsApp – Aarogya Setu )



AS suggested in DIGITAL INDIA , each and every Indian MUST have an email id and a smart phone pre-installed with following Apps :




BHIM 



ROMP 







If we want ever larger number of our citizen to “  Work from Home “ , we need to provide them with the following “ basic parameters “ :



Ø  A Smart Phone , pre-loaded with Apps ( of the kind listed above ) which enable to interact ( video conferencing app, included ) and transact their business with the outside world


Dear Shri Prasadji,

We have following options :

Ø  To those who do not own a Smart phone, give one FREE, pre-loaded with above-mentioned Apps ( and NaVIC GPS only ) . A small price for ushering what Shri Modiji so aptly described as the “  NEW  WORK  CULTURE 



Ø  To those who already own a Smart phone, deny certain govt services, until they download / install these apps
