Boost to digital payments
Prime Minister Narendra Modi deserves credit for launching e-RUPI, a person and purpose-specific digital payment system. This is a cashless and contactless digital payment tool.
He emphasized that through connecting people’s lives with technology, the payment system will assist everyone in targeted, transparent, and leakage-free delivery. e-RUPI will make certain that the funds are utilised for the purpose for which any assistance or benefits are being provided.
In India, digital transactions have aided the impoverished and disadvantaged, as well as small companies, farmers, and tribal people. This can be seen in the record-breaking 300 crore UPI transactions in July, totaling Rs. 6 lakh crore. Hope that State governments and citizens encourage digital payments through e-RUPI to help the country become more digitally empowered.
