In today’s world of e-commerce and instant information, it is hard to picture a world without the internet. However, the internet is still in its infancy in India. The internet came to India in 1986, but it was only accessible to educators and researchers. In 1995, the internet was opened for public use. More than 718 million people were using the internet on a regular basis. The arrival of the internet was an instant revival for the Indian people. In 2018, more than 120 million Indians were making purchases online. E-commerce is expected to reach $120 billion by 2025.
Entertainment
The growth of the internet opened many doors for people. People use the internet for entertainment. The ease of following their favorite entertainers online, on Youtube, and on social media is evident. In the past, theaters had few releases. Going to a theater, concert, or show was a rare treat. People have access to multiple channels on their televisions. Movies are less expensive to purchase or view online. Technology has changed the way India seeks and supports entertainment.
Lotteries and casinos are popular for adults in India. In the past, if they wanted to access a casino, they had to travel to a town that had them. Placing bets on the lottery, another popular pastime in India, required going to a shop to purchase a ticket. Today, even international lottery’s companies like Lottoland are available online. Mobile apps make it easy to buy lottery tickets online and redeem winnings.
Education
The Indian Government is fully invested in the growth of online education. In 2020, the Vice President called for a mass movement in digital literacy. This movement shows the Government’s dedication to India’s educational system, educators, and students. Technology is a significant part of the growth of the nation.
In many ways, technology has made it possible for national education for India in ways that were not possible before. Children in rural areas can join virtual classes. Children with learning disabilities can earn at their own pace and with special programs that make understanding easier. Audio and visual disabilities can be addressed and adapted thanks to technology. With many of the past hardships alleviated, it is expected that more children will remain in school until completion.
