Great initiative but I hope the focus remains on making these technologies accessible to rural areas too. Digital India should benefit everyone, not just urban centers.

The numbers are impressive - 1.2 billion mobile subscribers and fastest 5G rollout! But I hope the cybersecurity summit addresses data privacy concerns that come with rapid digitization.
