RE: Transparency : The Biggest Reform

AGP,

Reason is obvious

All those MPs / MLAs , have crores of Rupees stashed away in bank lockers !

With my suggestion, any large collection ( IT / ED to decide , how many ) of Rs 500 / 1000 notes in any small area ( one sq meter ? ), will show up as a balloon on the mobile app of IT / ED , since all these RFID sensor embedded notes , will continuously " announce / broadcast " their location , thru GPS in those smart phones !

Sir

If the solution you have suggested for Black money is that simple

why are they (NDA) not able to implement?

Is it the blockade Congress and opposition create in Rajya sabha is 

the reason?

Transparency  :  The  Biggest   Reform

Since assuming power 2 years ago , NDA government has carried out many reforms , having deep impact on social and economic matters ( - regrettably , hardly any reform to our parliamentary political system or in our electoral system )

I believe , THE reform that brings about other reforms , is TRANSPARENCY in the working of the government , mostly through ONLINE INTERACTION between the government departments and the citizens / businesses

Take a look at the following :

*    Auction of Spectrum

*    Auction of Coal Blocks / Oil - Gas Blocks

*    Auction of UMPP power projects / Solar Power Projects

*    Bidding / tendering for Highway Projects

*    Bidding for Defense Projects

*    Grant of Building Construction Projects

*    Grant of Environment Clearances

*    Registration of Companies / Start Ups

*    Launch of Mobile Apps for lodging complaints for govt services

*    Jan Dhan Yojana bank accounts with zero deposits

*    Direct Transfer of Benefits to replace subsidies to middlemen

*    Availing of bank loans under MUDRA / STAND UP Schemes

*    Online applying for Government jobs through a web portal

*    Enforcement of Net Neutrality through public consultation

*    Involving Private Sector in big way in " Skilling of India " project

*    FDI through automatic route in many sectors

*    Encouragement of E Commerce sector

Not being Press Information Bureau or Public Relations Department of the Central Government , I am bound to have left out a few other examples of such Transparency

Nor do I have a user's perspective ( either as an ordinary citizen or as a businessman who has to deal with any government department ), to know how these Policy Initiatives have got actually translated on the ground

But I do know that NDA government has been " less than a success " ( I am being as polite as I can ! ), when it comes to :

*   Stopping future generation of ,

     BLACK MONEY and CORRUPTION

    {  It is simply futile to waste time / energy on trying to bring back the

        $ 501 billion siphoned out of country in last 10 years }

    One easy / administrative solution ( not needing passing of any law ), is

    to embed Rs 500 / 1000 plastic currency notes with RFID sensors

    And , if this simple step is coupled with TOTAL ABOLITION of Personal

    Income Tax , the resultant TRANSPARENCY will sustain our economic

    growth ( GDP ) , above 10 % , leading to elimination of Poverty in 10

    years

Subject: HOW TO REVOLUTIONIZE HEALTH CARE

The   Bounty   of   Big   Data

To compile Consumer Price Index ( CPI ), USA Bureau of Labor Statistics employs hundreds of staff to call, fax, and visit stores and offices in 90 cities across the nation and report back about  80,000 prices on everything from tomatoes to taxi fares

But by the time the numbers come out, they're already a few weeks old and useless

In response , two economists at the MIT, Alberto Cavallo and Robert Rigobon , came up with a big-data alternative

Using software to crawl the Web, they collected half a million prices of products sold in the U.S. every single day

The project was able to detect a deflationary swing in prices immediately after Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy in September 2008

Enter commercial venture : Price-Stats :

It compiles millions of products sold by hundreds of retailers in more than 70 countries everyday..... indicating trends in inflation

{Source : Big Data : authors / Viktor Mayer-Schonberger / Kenneth Cukier }

 

In India , we too , keep compiling CPI in the same old way

Anybody's guess when our Central Government Authority responsible for compiling CPI , will adopt BIG DATA ANALYTICS , to give us up-to-the-day figures

Now imagine if Government were to launch Mobile App

 3D - Digital Delivery of Drugs ( outline below ) ,

 and make its use MANDATORY by every ,

*  Citizen................ ( Patient )

*  Doctor................ ( Prescriber )

*  Pharma Store.......( Vendor )

Then imagine applying BIG DATA ANALYTICS to every single purchase of every strip / bottle / vial  of medicine ( totaling to may be  a 100 million , every day )

This , fairly straight-forward use of an unusually simple Mobile App , is capable of delivering , unprecedented level of " Customized Healthcare " to millions of our citizens

I hope Dr Harsh Vardhan takes note  !

3 D - Digital Delivery of Drugs  ?

( let us call it , " Dispenser " )

On 14th Oct , 8 lakh pharmacy stores will go on strike to persuade Government to prohibit sale of " Prescription Drugs " by e-Pharmacies such as 1mg.com / Zigy.com , not to  speak of e-Com sites like Amazon / SnapDeal / Flipkart etc

Reason advanced :

*  Online sale puts consumers at risk

Real reason ?

*  Loss of jobs of 4 million persons employed by 800,000 pharmacy stores

*  Loss of business worth Rs 80.000 Crores

Current legal provision :

*  Drugs and Cosmetics Act,1940 does not prohibit online sale of medicines

Govt response :

*  Set up a Committee to draft new provisions in Law to regulate online sale

My take :

*  One day , everything will be sold online from web sites 10,000 Km away !

*  There is no way march of EVERYTHING ONLINE can be stopped or slowed

My Suggestions :

*  Govt to upload a Mobile App ( DISPENSER ? ) on Health Ministry web site

*  All doctors must download it , after proper registration / authentication

*  App will get embedded with full details of that doctor who uses it

*  Doctors to enter Patient Data in App  / then enter prescribed Drug Details

*  Doctor will SMS app data entered , to concerned patient's mobile

*  Patient will SMS entered app data to mobile of Chemist of his choice

*  Chemist will deliver the medicine to the patient with Bill Details in App

*  Every action / transaction on App , will get automatically emailed to web

    Servers of

       #  Health Ministry

       #  All India Medical Association

       #  All India Organization of Chemists and Druggists ( AIOCD )

       #  Drug Controller General of India

Advantages :

*   Jobs / business of Chemists / Druggists saved

*   Great convenience for patients / no need to visit Drug Store

*   No chance of Chemist " misinterpreting " doctor's handwriting !

*   Full History of

     #  Each Patient ( great benefit to Prescribing doctors )

     #  Each Drug    ( great benefit to Pharma Companies  )

     #  Each Chemist Shop  ( great benefit to Govt / AIOCD / Tax Dept )

     #  Each Doctor  ( great interest to All India Medical Association )

Of course , I have no answer for those who will oppose my suggestion by saying :

" What if either the Patient or the Doctor or the Chemist , does not have a Smart phone  ? "

My only answer :

For the benefit of millions , let us harness the Online Delivery technology

That is the only way  DIGITAL INDIA  can benefit the entire society

Solutions to all the problems of the World are known

Only Unknown are those dedicated persons determined to implement  !
