“Digital India campaign is important for the country”
Hearts are screaming “we want water”, “we need electricity”, “we need women
empowerment in our country” and “we need education”. So many demands to turn India
over a new leaf. ”Digital India campaign-important for the country” is like the cock and
the bull story.
“Children are like clay”-it is the education provided which molds their personality and
makes them a better citizen. Government is starting a digital India campaign in which
the government aims to provide internet services to 2.5 lakh villages.
British came and looted India, when they left, they left nothing behind, but sixty nine
years is a long time to cover the gap between developing and developed. One may say
that digital India campaign will help in the country’s development, It is also quite
generous of the government to think about the people but logical thinking is found
nowhere in this project. Government must understand that it is always better to travel
with the list of boons and banes in the road of life.
Do we have enough resources, known as money to start the project and help in its
continuation?
In villages the presence of child marriage, killing of the girl child, not sending the
daughter of the house to schools is still felt .There aren’t enough schools in villages.
Even if the government sets up this project will the orthodox people accept the change
so fast? Are there sufficient schools? Normally people don’t send their children to
school so what is the guarantee that they will send their kids to school even after the
project is launched? Are the conditions of schools proper so that students can study
there? There are social, infrastructural and other important issues like basics of
education and literacy which are pending for long and need to be addressed before we
jump to the other which are economically difficult to achieve. If the people don’t have the
access to basic education how will they use the higher technology?
To make the roots of my argument stronger, I would like to add that swacch bharat
abhiyan started in 2014 had an impact on the peoples mind, but look around you “are
the surroundings clean?”
In 2014, Respected Prime Minister Narender Modi gathered people, even the film stars
to clean the roads but what happened in 2015 except for vehicles no one was seen on
the roads, if the government cannot even complete one mission how will it start the other?
Scientist suggests that Wi-Fi rays are cancerous. So making Wi-Fi free and available at
every corner will not only increase the education standards but also health issues and
cybercrime.These situations will pull India inside a cage.
The conclusion arises that we first need to finish the project that we started, we need
to provide basic education accessible to all and then only jumping to complex steps
because an empire cannot be built by just bricks ,you need cement to make it stronger .
Digital education cannot improve the status of the country unless and until basic
education is provided.
