Govt to introduce UPI-like platforms for different sectors
By MYBRANDBOOK
The government is reportedly planning to create UPI-like platforms for various sectors and purposes. These prospective platforms will function similarly to UPI and will be used in various industries including logistics, agriculture, and education.
Minister of Electronics and IT Ashwini Vaishnaw said that the National Digital Health Mission and the government are working to develop a UPI-like model. This model would be created and made democratic so that everyone can use them.
The Minister added that the objective behind developing such models is to use technology in a way that would mirror the success experienced by UPI, digital Direct Benefit Transfer programs, and Jan Dhan bank accounts.
The minister was quoted as saying, “It primarily focuses on taking the good governance model to many more sectors. The foundational blocks are there, right? So, healthcare is a large sector in which the National Digital Health Program is going on very well. This will be almost like UPI where the government is creating the platform everybody else joins. Logistics, agriculture, and education…all these sectors will have phenomenal growth using distributive law.”
