 Prime Minister of India Mr Narender Modi and Chief Minister of Delhi Mr Arvind Kejriwal are very active with their followers on Twitter and Facebook and sharing views on a particular topic. It is a widely accepted fact that Mr Modi’s success is largely attributed to his presence on social media and an active social media team.

It is also good for people to know about the progress of ministers on a particular task. If governing political parties use social media to show the progress of their work then it is great. But if they are only using for condolence purposes then I think they have to think again about their social media political strategies.

The Internet is a very important tool for educators. The Internet and its application is user-friendly and make students life easy. A teacher can use YouTube channels to teach students around the world. Teachers can use the blog in which they can share their career experiences with college graduates.

Another thing is that offline cash transactions often not calculated and mentioned by people such as rent. If we use the internet or cashless internet transactions then it will help others to show their income report. If we’re giving rent money in cash or paying in cash for other services then it is highly possible for the receiver to hide that money for income tax report.

I am not saying that it should be mandatory to use but it can be helpful. But for that people also need education and awareness about internet banking. Also, banks need to update their banking systems. The government also needs to create privacy and cybersecurity policies etc.

So, uses of the internet in digital transactions are time-saving and helpful for the country. But be aware of cyber crimes and get more knowledge about internet security.

But it’s highly important for parents to guide children for the best use of internet in daily life.
