"Digital India's Promise vs. Reality: Why Government Websites Still Struggle?"

The government is bragging about digital transformation through Digital India, UPI, Aadhaar, ONDC, e-Rupee, Artificial Intelligence etc

But their portals like UIDAI and Voter Service Portal never seem to be working properly any given day

i have been trying to login with UIDAI to check my aadhaar update status but the server request fails 9/10 times, The OTP generation fails most of the time,

Voter Service Portal throws CORS errors when i upload my passport size photo in new voter id application form.

This has been the situation with almost all the government websites for many years, why no one is fixing it?

5 baar password daalo, 1 baar login hota hai Why puts captcha on the login page?

Default to any request is rejection, to reach out to employer from a decade back.

Professionals on verge of retirement with service contributions of 25+ years are depending for half of their savings on this shit

Ah, actually a lot of UIDAI stuff has been done by small & large private companies and some govt bodies. But truth be told, govt websites don't have SLAs.

Everyone wants Google's distribution, but no one wants to pay for it.

Everyone wants Google to stop doing what it's doing, but no one wants to invest in an alternative.
