The digital space has witnessed major transformations in the last couple of years and as per industry experts would continue to evolve itself. The latest entrant to the digital space is the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT can also be defined as interplay for software, telecom and electronic hardware industry and promises to offer tremendous opportunities for many industries.

With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), the number of connected sensors soon will reach trillions, working with billions of intelligent systems involving in-numerous applications will drive new consumer and business behaviour. The demand for increasingly intelligent industry solutions based on IoT will drive trillions of dollars in opportunity for IT industry and even more for the companies that take advantage of the IoT.

One of the top most initiatives in the form of Digital India Program of the Government which aims at ‘transforming India into digital empowered society and knowledge economy’, is expected to provide the required impetus for development of the IoT industry ecosystem in the country.

Department of Electronics and Information Technology,(DeiTY) has come out with a draft IOT Policy document which focuses on following objectives:

i. To create an IoT industry in India of USD 15 billion by 2020. It has been assumed that India would have a share of 5-6% of global IoT industry.

ii. To undertake capacity development (Human & Technology) for IoT specific skill-sets for domestic and international markets.

iii. To undertake Research & development for all the assisting technologies.

iv. To develop IoT products specific to Indian needs in all possible domains.

The Policy framework of the IoT Policy has been proposed to be implemented via a multi-pillar approach. The approach comprises of five vertical pillars (Demonstration Centres, Capacity Building & Incubation, R&D and Innovation, Incentives and Engagements, Human Resource Development) and 2 horizontal supports (Standards & Governance structure).

To read the policy document please refer the following URL:http://deity.gov.in/sites/upload_files/dit/files/Draft-IoT-Policy%20%281...

We invite your attention and comments to further improve the draft policy to create ecosystem for IoT industry in the country.

Last date for sending your suggestions is 31st October 2014.

A lot of discrepancies in clerical work inspite of automation is a worrying factor for many citizens as well as staff of that concerned office.please consider empowering employees(central&state) by creating awareness workshops(or a spoon-fed type magazine explaining a lot of issues) atleast twice a year on various aspects like their salary structure,their responsibilities & work,their rights,encouraging them to question their superiors if anomalies found in the dept,whistle-blowing etc.

please think of developing "automated file clearance " software programme. It should have: time of receiving the file/application,the current status of that file(under scrutiny of which officer/staff),a reminder to that staff/officer within which the file has to cleared,reasons(if any,for not clearing it),uploading of documents should be allowed to be done by individual itself & not an authorized center as recognized by govt with long queues and waiting time.deemed to be cleared on deadline.

Cellular Mobile Service Providers (CMSPs) like Vodafone since 2005 and 2006 respectively yet the UASPs and CMSPs have not rolled out the services till now as it works against their business model of selling mobile services in various tariff slabs. However, the internet service providers who are willing to roll out this service in rural areas are not being allowed to do so by the DoT . There is an urgent need to review this anomaly by the new governmnet and I can provide useful insight if reqd.

This query is regarding Railways Challenge Area Like dynamic pricing I am not seeing railway implementing dynamic capacity enhancement of passenger trains i.e. adding additional bogies.

In rural areas, banks are not opening Jan Dhan Yojana bank accounts. They have collected filled forms and always asking people to come after fifteen. This is happening for almost last 5 weeks.

A very huge and creative field it is. Ubiqutous computing can help building urban areas more sophisticated and secure. It's the need of the time to go for A.I. with IOT. :)
