DPI is not merely a technological breakthrough; it’s a socio-economic game changer for India
DPI leverages technology to achieve societal goals through a public interest-driven ecosystem. This approach combines infrastructure development with a collaborative framework that encourages responsible private sector innovation while ensuring public interest and regulatory oversight. The revolutionary impact of UPI on digital payments suggests that similar collaborative efforts can revolutionise other sectors. By extending DPI frameworks to areas like healthcare through the National Health Stack, a unified farmer database through Agri Stack and logistics through the Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC), we are already on the path to unlock significant innovation while ensuring affordable and accessible services on a large scale. On the other hand, Digital Public Goods (DPGs), such as the DIGIT platform, have gained significant popularity due to their customisable modules and workflows that can rapidly be rolled out. DIGIT has been chosen as the national platform for urban governance for transforming urban landscape with the goal of digitising 4,500+ ULBs by 2025.
