Increase in ‘DPI’ role

The permanent representative ambassador to the United Nations of India, P Harish, said that in recent decades, governments have emerged in a new role as a digital service provider. Until two years ago, the word Popular Digital Structure (DPI) was not common, but during the presidency of the G20 of India in 2023, a structure was prepared, which was accepted by all member countries.

He said: “After this, in September 2023, the United Nations launched the most impact initiative (‘High Impact Initiative’), with the aim of implementing DPI in 100 countries. According to the campaign ’50 -In 5 ‘, 50 countries will implement at least part of their DPI structure in the next 5 years.”

He said: “The DPI is actually a digital structure that is safe, shared and connected to each other, so that people can easily and private public services.”

He informed that the DPI trip of India began from a soil level, in which digital solutions have been prepared through Aadhaar, Upi, Jan-Dhan Yojana and mobile phones. The technical capacity of India, the large population, the institutional structure and the commitment of political leadership have played an important role in this whole process.

Indian ambassador to Harish said there have also been problems such as economic inequality, low labor productivity, the greatest employment in the informal sector and limited access to financial services in India. DPI has prepared a base to solve these problems.

In addition to this, artificial intelligence (AI) is also increasing the power of the DPI collector. AI in agriculture has trained 20 Crore farmers for crop monitoring, pest control, water management, crop cycle, access to the market and the benefits of government assistance.
