Union Communications Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia hit back at Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge's statement questioning the Digital India Mission. The Union Minister said that India's buffering era has ended with the rule of the Congress. The country has now moved to 5G under the leadership of PM Modi. Kharge had accused the central government of making false claims and unfulfilled promises about the Digital India Mission.
Union Minister Scindia said that Mallikarjun Kharge thank you for giving us another opportunity to impart knowledge. Whenever you have questioned us in the past, we have responded with results. For years while your party made dial-up promises, we built and delivered a world-class telecom network, UPI, Aadhaar and BharatNet at the grassroots level and at a large scale.
Digital India has become a mass movement.
Earlier on the tenth anniversary of the Digital India Mission, Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared a blog titled A Decade of Digital India on his official LinkedIn handle. He wrote that ten years ago, we started a journey with full confidence in an area where no one had gone before. Where, for decades, it was doubted whether Indians would be able to use technology, we changed that thinking and believed in the ability of Indians to use technology. Where, for decades, it was only thought that the use of technology would deepen the gap between the rich and the poor, we changed that mindset and eliminated that gap through technology.
The foundation of Digital India was laid - a mission that began to democratize access for all, create an inclusive digital infrastructure, and provide opportunities. In the year 2014, internet access was limited, digital literacy was low, and online access to government services was extremely limited. Many people doubted whether a large and diverse country like India could truly become digital. Today, this question has been answered not in data and dashboards, but through the lives of 140 crore Indians. From governance to education, transactions, and manufacturing, Digital India is everywhere.
