The digital space has witnessed major transformations in the last couple of years and as per industry experts would continue to evolve itself. The latest entrant to the digital space is the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT can also be defined as interplay for software, telecom and electronic hardware industry and promises to offer tremendous opportunities for many industries.

With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), the number of connected sensors soon will reach trillions, working with billions of intelligent systems involving in-numerous applications will drive new consumer and business behaviour. The demand for increasingly intelligent industry solutions based on IoT will drive trillions of dollars in opportunity for IT industry and even more for the companies that take advantage of the IoT.

One of the top most initiatives in the form of Digital India Program of the Government which aims at ‘transforming India into digital empowered society and knowledge economy’, is expected to provide the required impetus for development of the IoT industry ecosystem in the country.

Department of Electronics and Information Technology,(DeiTY) has come out with a draft IOT Policy document which focuses on following objectives:

i. To create an IoT industry in India of USD 15 billion by 2020. It has been assumed that India would have a share of 5-6% of global IoT industry.

ii. To undertake capacity development (Human & Technology) for IoT specific skill-sets for domestic and international markets.

iii. To undertake Research & development for all the assisting technologies.

iv. To develop IoT products specific to Indian needs in all possible domains.

The Policy framework of the IoT Policy has been proposed to be implemented via a multi-pillar approach. The approach comprises of five vertical pillars (Demonstration Centres, Capacity Building & Incubation, R&D and Innovation, Incentives and Engagements, Human Resource Development) and 2 horizontal supports (Standards & Governance structure).

To read the policy document please refer the following URL:http://deity.gov.in/sites/upload_files/dit/files/Draft-IoT-Policy%20%281...

We invite your attention and comments to further improve the draft policy to create ecosystem for IoT industry in the country.

Last date for sending your suggestions is 31st October 2014.

We need stronger consumer protection agency which can take action without red tapes..this is the basis for all the marketing either its actual or on internet.. In todays date consumer has to compromise to one sided agreements or blanket agreements which r totally in favour of company..so when drafting policy kindly consider making the consumer stronger..if the authorities take quicker n subtantial actions it will make consumer confident n turn making sense of purpose of policy..thanks

We can have floating sensors in major rivers of India which would keep sending out information over network about the vital parameters of water. This will significantly help track in case any industry effluents are getting contaminated or any other factors are harming the water flora and fauna. Entire project can be an IoT project.

there have been dwindling numbers of Rhinos in Kaziranga Sanctuary, there have been other species of wildlife which have been hunted down and endangered. We can have these species fitted with positioning sensors without hurting their bodies. These sensors will then keep relaying the co-ordinates of movement of these species and their well being. If at all the animal is seen moving outside the expected area, an alarm can be raised and drones with cameras would be setoff for a lookout and tracked.

Today's major issue is corruption in railways. We should install automatic reservation booking terminals inside the trains & platforms. The TTE should have no power of booking. Last to last time cancellation & booking should be done by passenger itself. This step also resolves the issue of having necessary bank account of every citizen.

Can we have a realtime database, where information about and for blood banks are connected by internet? How about developing a smartphone app, which by a few finger taps, on need basis we would be able to reach the blood bank or arrange for the donors. The idea is simple but it can have a huge impact. Lots of lives could be saved. Donors can register themselves with area and phone number and blood banks can give the live data feed to the servers. Any one in need can query these websites.
