Digital India is a campaign launched by the Government of India to transform the country into a digitally empowered society. It was launched in 2015 by Prime Minister Narendra Modi with the objective of connecting rural areas with high-speed internet and improving digital literacy. The vision of Digital India focuses on three key areas: digital infrastructure as a utility for citizens, governance and services on demand, and digital empowerment of citizens.

Human capital formation is the process of acquiring and increasing the number of skilled, educated, and experienced individuals necessary for economic and political development. It is determined by factors such as expenditure on education and health, study programs for adults, and migration. Migration leads to human capital formation by transferring skilled individuals between locations. Skill India and Startup India programs complement each other by developing vocational skills and entrepreneurship to increase human capital formation in India. Human capital formation helps reduce income inequality by providing more people with skills and qualifications to engage in higher paying jobs.
Mao Zedong and Mahatma Gandhi were influential 20th century leaders who led revolutions in China and India respectively. Though they had differing views on some issues like the use of violence, they both advocated for women's rights and ending imperialism in their countries. Key differences included Mao's belief in class struggle and Gandhi's opposition to social classes. Overall, they both shaped their nations but are now seen quite differently, with Mao receiving more criticism for policies like the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution.

Infrastructure in india ,Indian InfrastructureShubham Jain
The document discusses infrastructure in India. It notes that while India is the fourth largest economy, lack of proper infrastructure has slowed GDP growth by 1-2% annually. Key sectors of infrastructure in India include energy, transport, communication, education and health. However, India faces problems developing its infrastructure like issues with land acquisition, funding constraints, and delays in approvals. While India aims to invest $500 billion in infrastructure by 2012, it still lags behind China which spends 11% of its GDP on infrastructure and has been increasing spending by 25% annually. Improving infrastructure is important for India's continued economic growth and development.
The document discusses key differences between physical capital and human capital.

The document also compares approaches to human capital and human development, noting human development considers education and health as ends in themselves rather than just means to increase productivity.

Beyond the Advance Presentation for By the Book 9John Rodzvilla
In June 2020, L.L. McKinney, a Black author of young adult novels, began the #publishingpaidme hashtag to create a discussion on how the publishing industry treats Black authors: “what they’re paid. What the marketing is. How the books are treated. How one Black book not reaching its parameters casts a shadow on all Black books and all Black authors, and that’s not the same for our white counterparts.” (Grady 2020) McKinney’s call resulted in an online discussion across 65,000 tweets between authors of all races and the creation of a Google spreadsheet that collected information on over 2,000 titles.
While the conversation was originally meant to discuss the ethical value of book publishing, it became an economic assessment by authors of how publishers treated authors of color and women authors without a full analysis of the data collected. This paper would present the data collected from relevant tweets and the Google database to show not only the range of advances among participating authors split out by their race, gender, sexual orientation and the genre of their work, but also the publishers’ treatment of their titles in terms of deal announcements and pre-pub attention in industry publications. The paper is based on a multi-year project of cleaning and evaluating the collected data to assess what it reveals about the habits and strategies of American publishers in acquiring and promoting titles from a diverse group of authors across the literary, non-fiction, children’s, mystery, romance, and SFF genres.

India Vision 2020 is a plan proposed by former Indian
president Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalamto make India a developed country
by 2020. India Vision 2020 of transforming India into a developed
nation can become a reality only if every student and youth is
individually innovative. It involves putting the nation before
oneself,former President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam said. The vision for the
nation should be based on strong pillars of development. It should
focus on reducing the rural-urban divide, equitable distribution of land
and water, providing value-based education, access to best health care,
ensuring responsive and corrupt-free governance, alleviation of
poverty, and a secure and terrorism-free state.[1]

[edit]Vision for India
India
According to A.P.J. Abdul Kalam in formulating the vision of the
future India, it is important to see beyond the limits of the immediate
past to rediscover the greatness that is India. Although the
present Republic of India is a young developing nation, our people
have a rich and illustrious history as one of the longest
living civilizations in the world. In 1835, even theBritish historian
and politician, Lord Macaulay, admitted before the British Parliament:
"I have traveled across the length and breadth of India and I have not
seen one person who is a beggar, who is a thief. Such wealth I have
seen in this country, such high moral values, people of such caliber…
the very backbone of this nation, which is her spiritual and cultural
heritage….." Thus, it would be wrong to state that in 1947 India
started to construct a modern nation from scratch. Rather, it began the
process of rediscovering its rich cultural and spiritual values that had
3. formed the foundation of India in the past. It is on this foundation that
we seek to formulate the vision of India 2020.
It is indeed a challenge to formulate a cohesive vision for India in
2020. Therefore, we thought it appropriate to seek inspiration from
one who had a clear vision and possessed the gift to articulate it in a
manner that has inspired the hearts and minds of countless Indians.
The vision articulated by Rabindranath Tagore is all encompassing in
every sense.[2]
[edit]The views of Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam
1. Set a goal in life. To achieve that goal, acquire the knowledge,
work hard and when problem occurs, defeat it and succeed.
2. Always keep myself, my home, my surroundings,
neighbourhood and environment clean.
3. Lead an honest life free from all corruption and set an example
for others to adopt a righteous way of life.
4. light the lamp of knowledge in the nation and ensure that it
remains lit for ever.[3]

[edit]Overview
India Vision 2020 was initially a document prepared by the
Technology Information, Forecasting and Assessment Council
(TIFAC) of India'sDepartment of Science and Technology under the
chairmanship of Kalam and a team of 500 experts. The plan is further
detailed in the bookIndia 2020: A Vision for the New Millennium,
which kalam coauthored with Dr. Y.S. Rajan.
kalam described the plan as follows:[5]
"Transforming the nation into a developed country, five areas in
combination have been identified based on India's core competence,
natural resources and talented manpower for integrated action to
double the growth rate of GDP and realize the Vision of Developed
India.
These are:
Agriculture and food processing — with a target of doubling the present production of
food and agricultural products by 2020. Agro food processing industry would lead to the
prosperity of rural people, food security and speed up the economic growth;
5. Infrastructure with reliable and quality electric
power including solar farming for all parts of the country,
providing urban amenities in rural areas and interlinking of rivers;
Education and Healthcare: To provide social security and
eradication of illiteracy and health for all;
Information and Communication Technology: This is one of
our core competencies and wealth generator. ICT can be used
for tele-education, tele-medicine and e-governance to promote
education in remote areas, healthcare and also transparency in the
administration; and
Critical technologies and strategic industries witnessed the
growth in nuclear technology, space technology and defence
technology".
[edit]Dream activities of India Vision 2020
At DreamIndia, they believe in each and every one of us doing ground
work, and doing it periodically. That is why they have built up and
sustained 'DI centers' in every city of our existence.Volunteers visit
these centers regularly (mostly on every weekend) and engage the
kids. These variegated sessions consist of English and computer
classes, school academics, sports and drama sessions, singing and
dancing activities etc. For the tiny tots, there are phonetics,
handwriting, clay modelling and other sessions for building overall
reading, writing, and motor skills of the child.
Apart from weekend study sessions, we also make periodic visits to
orphanages, old age homes, and homes for children with special
needs. These are DI's way of supporting other organisations that do
excellent work and that strive to make childrens' world better
