Jayant Benjamin

Abstract :

Suyog, a Hindi word, which means “solution”,  aims tosolve rural socio-economic imbalance by making a system that answers the questions of identity, employment and micro-transactions and therefore self reliant. These have been prototyped using a Radio Frequency ID tags and an Internet of things (IoT) platform. Rural mass in India are unaware about the sustainable economic development. Whatever we have today they are to be used by present generation. nothing will be left out for the future generation. It is high time when all should think of next generation’s welfare and their survival. We must understand the concept of sustainable economic development. This is the need of hour. This paper discusses how these smart cards when integrated in government initiatives can contribute towards sustainable development of the rural areas. Citizenship, income group, digital transactions, social group, voters ID and tax payers’ card  are all essential part of having an identity but all this being segregated is a cluttered concept, whereas Suyog advocates an amalgamation of all these aspects of ones’ identity.
