The primary objective of the government is to make the country a trillion dollar digital economy and at least one of the top two digital economies in the world, Minister of State for Electronics and IT Rajeev Chandrasekhar said on Monday.

He said that there will be focus to intensify digitalisation of government services and forming laws that are of global standards that will clear ambiguities and result in inclusive development.

Primary objective is to make sure that our digital economy is a trillion dollar economy – the largest in the world. If not the largest then at least one of the top 2 digital economies in the world, Chandrasekhar said while summarising the broad objective of the government for the next 25 years.

He was speaking at week-long Azadi ka Digital Mahotsav.

The government has been aspiring to make India a USD 1 trillion digital economy by 2025.

We want to create global standard laws in this country. We want to move from ambiguity or administrative discretion to a regime where global standard laws can create inclusion. It can ensure that the internet and technologies remain open, safe and trusted, accessible to main stakeholders of the technology which are citizens of this country, Chandrasekhar said.
