In everyone’s life, Love has a deep link to nourishment. Starting from your mother’s milk, nourishment transfers in terms of dairy milk that further nourishes us to make us what we are. From a refreshing morning cup of coffee to an essential curd. Milk takes different forms in our life, knowingly or unknowingly..
Nourishing All Life

The Ecosystem Behind Nourishment
However, to get that bowl of milk to you, there is an industry working in the background.
From the cows of a very underprivileged Dairy Farmer, the milk comes to the distributer, transported to retailers and then to our homes.
While we grow with the nourishment of the dairy farmer, is the dairy farmer also growing?

Digitally Underprivileged Dairy Farmer
Most of the times they get no benefit
of the digital journey we are taking ahead.
Isn’t it our duty to include them in
the Digital
Revolution?

Evolution of Digital India
Digital India is going under tremendous revolution and almost every industry is getting benefited by it. We are currently in the mobile revolution phase where everyone can afford a digital device called mobile. Hence the apps we make now should also be in Indian languages.

All Were EqualWhen there was no internet. There was no discrimination in terms of add on facilities. World used to go slow and the pace has been the same to all.

Digitally divided society
Digital Economic Revolution
Digitally Privileged class has all advantage
Digitally Underprivileged class Were left behind
But when Internet came to existence, few have got the advantage of this transformation. But a majority have been left behind. Some because of financial status, and others because of language barriers.

Mobile: Potentially a bridge for digital division
● Ideally, mobile phone is the only device where convergence of all kinds happen at one place.
● With only one device we can connect with the whole world, and we can bring-in true digital inclusion.

Challenges

Heterogeneous Mobile Ecosystem
However, there has been a heterogeneous mobile ecosystem, broken various operating systems, internet speeds and technical barriers.

The Great Language Barrier
The biggest of all has been the language barrier, where majority of Indians speak their own regional language, while almost all mobile and digital ecosystem is dominated by English language. There is needed an alternate solution to end this mobile racism.

Practical Challenges
If the above are not enough, we have millions of apps flooding on the app stores and people could hardly find the right app they want.
Also, the mobile phones have limited storage space and hence people aren’t able to use more than a few apps.
