New Delhi: On the 7th of January President Droupadi Murmu presented the seventh edition of the Digital India Awards today. The President said that social justice should be the prime objective of digital innovations.

The President feels happy to note the innovative initiatives undertaken by Government entities at the grassroots level, as well as in collaboration with startups, to foster public-private partnerships. “We have to keep challenging ourselves to deliver innovative solutions to improve the ease of living for all citizens,” she said, whether in the judiciary, land registration, fertilizers, or public distribution system.

“India’s digital transformation story is one of innovation, implementation, and inclusion,” said President. She emphasized the need to create collaborative platforms to find innovative solutions to make the world a more accessible and equitable place.
