India may leverage LoCs to pitch its DPI stack to developing nations

Spurred by the success of digital public goods and infrastructure like CoWin (portal for covid vaccination drive), and UPI (unified payments interface) at home, India wants to share the technology with emerging economies, one of the persons mentioned above said.

"India hopes to develop partnerships, especially with the global south which is development-oriented, as well as demand-driven," the person said, requesting anonymity.

Known as the Indian Stack, India’s digital infrastructure encompasses various platforms such as Aadhaar, DigiLocker, DigiYatra and UPI, which have been developed through multi-sector collaborations.

The goal of these digital public goods (DPG) and digital public infrastructure (DPI) is to provide a seamless and efficient way for citizens to access government services and promote inclusive development.
