Digital India is the Government of India's flagship program to transform India into a digitally empowered society and knowledge economy. It aims to ensure government services are available to citizens electronically by reducing paperwork. Key areas of focus include developing digital infrastructure as a utility, improving governance through technology, and digitally empowering citizens. The program will be implemented from 2014 to 2018 across nine pillars including broadband highways, universal access to phones, public internet access, e-governance, and information for all. It faces challenges around spectrum crunch, electronics manufacturing, labor and skills, and infrastructure but has driven initiatives like digital locker, digital life certificates, and Bharat Net to promote its vision.
