DIGITAL ECONOMY A LEVELER OR A SOURCE OF INEQUALITY.

DIGITAL ECONOMY A LEVELER OR A SOURCE OF INEQUALITY

Digital economy refers to an economy that is based on digital computing technologies or on the internet. This is the age of science, technology, and the internet, today the internet is the most common thing that everyone even a child uses.

Earlier there was a barter system where people exchange goods for goods, later it comes to cash system and finally today we are working on a cashless economy. Today in In the 21^st century everything is online including payments and transactions but is it really worth or worse for us.

Digital the economy has helped us in many ways like it have reduced paperwork, resulting to save papers ad trees. Earlier because of cash payments there was a lot of paperwork that may get sometimes wrong making big troubles but due to the digital system, it's easy to manage all these things including transactions. It is also a great boon in making things transparent, thus helping to reduce the corruption rate because the money goes directly from consumer to seller, no other middle man thereby helping to develop a powerful connection between government and public. It makes us free from carrying cash everywhere and taking tensions to secure it. It also helps to lessen the rate of black money as nothing is secret.

Digital the economy also helps to increase the literature rate, as if all the things are done by smart ways, people have to be smart with the time. It also helps the poor farmers to sell their produce at the right rates as many times it happens that the poor farmers don’t have an option to sell their produce to middlemen who take advantage of these peasants. Widows and old citizens are also benefited from this type of economy as they get their pensions without any problem like they get their accurate pensions that the government has provided them without any condition to share their some percentage of money with the middle officers.

Today we can buy anything at any place by not worrying about cash and just paying online or by using the money transactions app. We just need our credit or debit cards even we can pay through mobile by having e-wallets.

In fact, in In many developed countries, this practice has become one of the biggest ways to pay bills.

In India too, to promote the digital economy our government have launched many campaigns like the DIGITAL INDIA to ensure that government services are made available to citizens electronically by improved online infrastructure and increasing connectivity in the field of technology. Its motto is “power to empower”. The digital economy has given rise to a world where innovation is more important than mass production.

The digital economy also refers to the convergence of computing and communication technologies on the internet and other networks. As we know that it's easy for us to store any type of data online or in computers. The human calculation might get wrong but computers always give us the right results resulting in safer and better transactions. The digital economy has helped to create an economic revolution. A tremendous economic change is taking place in our economy.

Digital India aims to enhance the process and delivery of different government services through e-governance and payments gateways. The Digital India campaign is a great initiative to integrated digital technology, thus increasing digital transactions for a better future. To promote digital transactions our government has also launched many apps like BHIM, Paytm, and other online banking software. They also give us cashback offers so that more people can get convinced to use this system.

However, in a developing country like India, it's quite difficult to convert all the transactions from cash to cashless. The government have to provide time-to-time information about new technologies and cyber attacks and the ways by which they can save their transactions. In fact, cyber attacks are a problem faced by every developed and developing nation also digital economy led's to loss of employment as the more we depend on technologies, the less we depend on human resources.  We can take the example of online banking. It also needs high investment which can be a problem for the poor or least developing countries.

Digital economy can be a leveler as well as a source of inequality   as it totally depend on us how we use it. To make it a leveler the government have to take many initiative lies they have to make digital transactions easy for all the persons in a country from rich to poor and guiding them on a macro scale.

POVERTY ANYWHERE IS A THREAT TO PROSPERITY EVERYWHERE.

POVERTY ANYWHERE IS A THREAT TO PROSPERITY EVERYWHERE.

Poverty is not only about lack of  money to meet basic needs like food shelter, clothes, sanitation, but it is much more than this, it is a lack of nourishment, education, proper environment, and a lot of tension about the future. Most often, poverty is the situation when people want to escape because their life is so far different from others. As a result, they feel uncomfortable, this enables them to think for a better future.

“Poverty anywhere is a threat to prosperity everywhere”, yes it is because if there is poverty there is a lack of everything. Aids originated in poverty-stricken to Africa. The poor countries in Africa did not have the resources to conduct research or identify and restrict the disease on time. As a result ultimately aids spread to such proportions that it became a threat challenge to people across the globe, and hence, the United Nations and other countries have to spend billions for curing this disease because this disease was continuously spreading worldwide from people to people and country to country. It is true that the whole world is connected, so impacts of different things also travel worldwide. If we see in our surroundings, we will find many poor people living in extreme conditions and are victim to many hazardous communicable diseases which automatically reach to the whole environment.

People don’t have enough money to live in better environment condition, proper sanitation, they don’t have proper food and water this all is because they are poor.

A country cannot be developed if there is very much difference between the rich and the poor but can only develop if there is a minute difference between them or all are treated equally. They also have good living conditions, sanitation, and proper health care.

We can see effects of poverty everywhere and it is an absolute truth that ‘poverty is the mother of crime’ because poor’s do not  have  any option to survive and hence, sometimes have to do many illegal and dangerous work which are both socially and medically dangerous. Like many poor people became terrorists or get involved in many illegal works.

Many forests get deforested because the people living near them encroach upon them and destroy them, affecting the biodiversity, indirectly affecting the nation and all prosperous people too. Poor’s cut trees for using wood as fuel or other purposes leading to increase in the amount of global warming in the environment which is affecting all of us. But here the poor’s are not responsible because they have no option left except to cut these trees. Many people kill the wild animals or birds for leather or for meals again affecting biodiversity.

All the things in this world are interconnected and if one will affect the other will also get affected. The causes of poverty are many but the consequences of poverty are humans only.

Extreme conditions by poverty are sometimes by the fault of the government only because they do not take proper measures to stop this. However, in recent years our government has taken many and major steps to uplift the poor sections of our society like providing them clean food, a better environment, and living conditions, giving them education, and providing them jobs. But, still, there is a lot of discrimination between them and the rich society. Many a time this happens because the rich society takes advantage and insults them, making them feel that they are not a part of society. But this needs to be changed because the poor’s are also equally important for the growth and development of the nation. We should try to work with them and stop discriminating against them because poverty, resulting inequality, and frustration make nations a threat to terrorism crime unrest, and humanitarian cries for prosperous countries. Therefore if prosperity has to aspire for future generations anywhere in the world, poverty needs to be attenuated from the world.

Children's are the future of every nation but according to UNICEF, more than 22000 people children die daily because and poverty and hunger. But this does not mean that there is a scarcity of food because “God had provided everything for everyone’s need, not for everyone’s greed. So, we should try not to waste our food or anything and share with the poor to uplift them. There are many causes of poverty and corruption in one of them. In many countries, the poor remain poor and the rich became richer this is because the poor’s are not given equal rights. There are many parents who don’t educate their children and let them do child labor because of extreme and if some educate their children too then they are not given equal opportunities to show their talent. This led the talents to suppress resulting in a weak nation. But this needs to be stopped, today our government had made many provisions for the upliftment of the poor sections of our society but they are yet somewhere discriminated and this is not because of the government but because of us only because the poverty of goods can easily be cured but the poverty of soul is impossible. If we want to suppress poverty then we have to enlarge our soles for helping others for getting the proper food and education, clean drinking water and sanitation, etc.

Poverty cannot come to end by increasing salaries of poor or by giving high positions to them who are not capable of holding them but by giving everyone equal treatment and giving everyone equal opportunity according to their talent. To reduce the poverty we should try to stop racial and caste discrimination,and should encourage women empowerment because to make a country economically strong all have to work together and avoid any discrimination on the basis of poverty.

Poor people are also a resource for every nation and if these resources get affected the other will automatically get affected from health to wealth

DESTINY OF A NATION IS SHAPED IN ITS CLASSROOM.

DESTINY OF A NATION IS SHAPED IN ITS CLASSROOMS.

It is true that children are the biggest gift from God and are the future of a country. They are like seeds, if we sow them properly they will give us a fruit full tree.

After home, classrooms are the second place for children to learn. Teachers and children are one of the biggest resources of a country. If the teachers are well educated and well trained then, they will teach the youth of the country well.

Children are just like a pot which are given shapes in their classrooms. In a classroom children come from different castes, different races, different places but they all are treated one as students, this helps them to develop their mind, help them to mix with different people. In a classroom, students are not judged on the basis of their race and religion. Classrooms are where children get to know about different things this help them to think elaborately .Classrooms are a complete environment for children to study.

Just like each stair help us to reach our goal, different levels of classrooms also help to reach our goal in our life. There are different types of children having different  types of passion, some wants to become police, engineers, doctors while some want to become dancers, singers, actors and for doing everything one needs classrooms where they can be shaped, the way they should be to reach their destiny.

Children's are the future of a country and for a bright and beautiful future they should be given a highly advanced and good education. We know that education is the biggest tool to change the world and classrooms are the place where these tools are made.

In a  classroom, students learn how to interact with each other, work in teams and be punctual and honest and these all  help them throughout their life.

India is a diverse country, but in the 21^st century too there are many places where discrimination can be seen on the basis of race, color, or gender but education is the only way to come across this. Many of the marginalized communities are still socially discriminated and they cannot take any stand for them because they are uneducated. So, education is a must for every child. When children study in classrooms they get to know what is right and wrong and the ways by which they can stop the discrimination going around them. Education is a birthright for each of us and should be provided to each of us.

When all children are treated equally in the same class this helps them to think broadly and in the right way.

“Abraham Lincoln once said that the philosophy  of the schoolroom in one generation will be the philosophy of the government in the next generation.” The early ages of children are the most crucial stage of their life. So, when we give them a better environment they will give us a better future. Like we should help children to form positive self-images and grow up respect for the people who are different from them too.

A country can only be developed when there is no discrimination and all peoples are educated. Classrooms are necessary for instilling the right values like kindness, cleanliness, gender equality to make children good and responsible citizens.

For children, classrooms are just not a place for studying but a place for developing their personal, social, and intellectual power of thinking and power to change the world for a good purpose. It's true that the destiny of a nation is shaped in its classrooms and nations with excellent classrooms have always been there on the path of development and success.

Environment vs growth.

ENVIRONMENT  VS GROWTH.

The living and non-living things which occur naturally on the Earth comprise the environment and growth is the development in every aspect of life. Today growth and development is the need of the hour. Everything needs to be developed but what about the impacts of these developments in our surroundings. Is this growth good for our environment?

Growth and development is needed to make our life easier and comfortable but the environment is necessary to survive on this Earth.

If we compare us from our ancestor then we get to know that we have come across from their times. Our life today is full of luxuries and comfort, science has reached its peak and because of that we can cure any disease today but on the other hand, these development are one of the reasons for so many diseases. Our environmental conditions are getting worse and worse day by day.

Our ancestors may not have these luxuries but they had a better environment than us where they could have fresh breath and a pollution-free environment. We have developed transports for making our life easier and to save our time but what about the pollution caused by them. We have set up many industries but what about deforestation.

The curiosity of humans are growth and development but the consequences of growth are bad environmental conditions that are directly dangerous for humans.

 Growth and development are not bad in fact it is the need of the hour but pollution and global warming are worse. Today the carbon dioxide one of the greenhouse gas in the atmosphere has already exceeded 400 parts per million and due to the lack of a green environment, it is increasing day by day. The amount of green house gas in the atmosphere is already above its peak and can potentially cause dangerous climate change.

“Climate disasters are on the rise. Around 70% of disasters are now climate-related, up to 50% more from two decades ago and one of the biggest causes of this is the increasing growth and pollution.

Environment the destruction caused by humans is a global problem, and this is a problem which is increasing day-by-day. Environment changes are affecting all things from agriculture to humans to animals to other living organisms.

Development on the other side is a slow and constant process. Everything has some positive and negative impact, growth and development also have. Development is carried out for the benefit of humans but on the other hand, the environment is also equally important for us. Think if we have all the luxuries, all the things around us developed but not an environment to survive.

 Today deforestation is on its merge we are continuously cutting down trees to develop industries, but what will happen when there will be no trees which mean no oxygen and no organisms including us. To live happily it’s necessary to manage both the environment and development because growth  can only be possible if we have a life and an environment.
