Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a mobile app to make digital payments easier at Digi-Dhan Mela in Delhi. Highlights...

Government of India has launched a gift under which for the next 100 days, every day 15,000 people will win prizes through lucky draw.

These prizes will go to those who transact between 50,000 - 3 lakh online. This is so that poor people get the prize.

Today we also had a draw for the Digi Dhan Vyapar Yojana. This will happen once a week.

This is for those sellers who can encourage customers to buy products through digital mode

On Babasaheb Ambedkar's birth anniversary - April 14 - there will be a mega draw which will see prizes worth crores.

I want to thank people for embracing digital transactions.

But the most important thing we have done is launch a new app called BHIM. It will be compatible with all phones.

Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar was an economist. The RBI was born on principles he wrote in his thesis.

Mantra of Dr Ambedkar was to work for the upliftment of the poor. And the biggest power of technology is that it can empower the poor. For those with a positive mindset, India has several opportunities.

People can bank with their thumb.

In two weeks, payment through use of biometric finger print will start in India.

Kuch log hote hain jinka subah nirasha se hi start hota hai; aise nirashawadi logon ko unki nirasha mubarak.

Look at the newspapers 3 years ago, the news was about what is lost (in scams), today it is about what has come back or what is the gain.

Digital connectivity can do wonders for India and can empower poor.
