How Modis Digital India Rewired The Way India Lives, Works & Connects

Just recently, the Modi Government marked the completion of Digital India’s 10-year journey… a decade that has brought about significant transformation across industries, lives, and the way India operates at its core.  One of the most defining forces behind this change has been the Digital India initiative. Launched in 2015, this visionary movement set out to digitally empower every citizen, and today, its impact is visible in every corner of the country. To celebrate this remarkable journey, the Government has rolled out a series of digital assets… powerful videos and content that draw a compelling before-and-after picture of India, comparing the pre-2014 landscape with the digitally empowered India of today. . These videos showcase how technology is simplifying everyday life. Showcasing the Digital Leap The first video puts the spotlight on Digi Yatra… a solution to a hassle we all face: juggling boarding passes, ID proofs, and long airport queues. Whether it’s the fear of misplacing your documents or the constant need to pull them out at every checkpoint, air travel can get tedious. Digi Yatra solves this by using facial recognition technology to make the entire journey contactless and paperless. Your face becomes your identity… making airport travel smoother, faster, and smarter. We all have that one dusty drawer at home… stuffed with mark sheets, PAN cards, ration cards, voter IDs, and who knows what else. And just when we need that one document the most, it magically disappears. We’ve all stood in long queues, photocopying the same papers, carrying 3 passport-size photos, and getting them self-attested just to submit one form. Enter DigiLocker. In the past 10 years, over 52 crore users have uploaded more than 943 crore documents onto this secure digital platform… making paperwork finally go paperless. With just a few taps on your phone, you can now access your documents anywhere, anytime… no more lost certificates, no more scanning, no more stress. There was a time when going to buy veggies meant bargaining over ₹2 and digging into wallets full of coins. “Bhaiya, ₹10 ka dhaniya free dena” was a daily ritual. And if you forgot your wallet? Game over. Now? Even your local sabziwala says, “Paytm karo, Google Pay karo, PhonePe karo.” Thanks to UPI, India doesn’t carry cash… we carry confidence. In just 10 years, India has gone from pocket change to ₹25 lakh crore worth of UPI transactions in a single month (May 2025). And here’s the real mic drop… half of the world’s real-time digital transactions now happen in India. We’re not just leading, we’re setting the gold standard for the world. Who would’ve thought your phone would one day replace your wallet? Digital India did.4 There was a time when if the government sent ₹100 to the poor, only ₹15 actually reached them… the rest? Lost in a black hole of middlemen, paperwork, and “chai-paani” cuts. But with Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT), that changed. Today, the money doesn’t pass through ten hands… it goes straight to the people who need it, directly into their bank accounts. Over the last 10 years, ₹44.5 lakh crore has been transferred to the poor and needy through DBT. By removing leakages and middlemen, the country has saved ₹3.5 lakh crore… that’s like deleting “corruption charges” from our system cache. For people in remote areas, seeing a specialist was nearly impossible — unless they travelled miles and spent a day’s wage. Digital India changed that. Today, with one of the world’s largest telemedicine platforms, over 37 crore patients have received virtual consultations… right from their phones. What’s even more heartening? 56% of them are women, and 13% are senior citizens. Because healthcare shouldn’t come with a location barrier. And when the world was brought to its knees by a pandemic, India didn’t just fight back… it built CoWIN. With over 111 crore users and 220 crore+ vaccine doses administered, CoWIN became a digital shield that helped protect a nation of 1.4 billion. In just a decade, Digital India has gone from being a bold vision to a lived reality… transforming how we travel, transact, access healthcare, store documents, and receive government support. It’s not just about apps and platforms… it’s about empowerment, accessibility, and inclusion at scale. This 10-year milestone isn’t just a celebration of technology; it’s a celebration of how technology can uplift lives, bridge gaps, and drive real change. As we step into the next decade, one thing is certain… the foundation has been laid, the momentum is strong, and the future is undoubtedly digital. Here’s to an India that doesn’t just go digital but leads digital.
