India focuses on helping other nations build digital public infrastructure

Against the serene backdrop of a rainy Hampi, India kickstarted the first day of the 3rd G20 Sherpa Meeting on Thursday with a discussion between Sherpas, delegates and representatives of member and invitee nations chaired by Indian Sherpa Amitabh Kant, who stressed on the importance of adopting a digital public infrastructure to accelerate tech transformation of developing nations.

Kant highlighted the priority with which India is providing its expertise to low and middle-income nations to develop their own digital payment and unique identification systems during its G20 presidency.
