The internet has also resulted in the proliferation of digital services in verticals such as e-commerce, digital payments, e-banking, online educations, among others. The Covid-19 crisis has further reinforced its role in the modern-day world, BIF<\/a> said in a statement.
At the same time internet has brought a significant rise in issues pertaining to its governance.
As India aspires to be a leader in the digital revolution, Indian interests need to be clearly articulated, suitably positioned and protected both in the multilateral as well as in global internet governance<\/a> forums, BIF added.
<\/div><\/div>A white paper on \u2018Internet Governance & Digital Cooperation: A Recommended Way Forward for India\u2019, co-authored by Amrita Choudhury<\/a>, Director, CCAOI and TV Ramachandran, President, BIF was also released.
\u201cIn the changing world order, it is imperative to enhance Indian engagement in global internet governance platforms, supported by adequate multi-stakeholder discussions within the country to formulate an India approach,\u201d said Amrita Choudhury, Director, CCAOI.

<\/a><\/div>BIF pushes for implementation of Trai's public wi-fi recommendations, rues delay<\/h4><\/a><\/div><\/div>
The internet has also resulted in the proliferation of digital services in verticals such as e-commerce, digital payments, e-banking, online educations, among others. The Covid-19 crisis has further reinforced its role in the modern-day world, BIF<\/a> said in a statement.
At the same time internet has brought a significant rise in issues pertaining to its governance.
As India aspires to be a leader in the digital revolution, Indian interests need to be clearly articulated, suitably positioned and protected both in the multilateral as well as in global internet governance<\/a> forums, BIF added.
<\/div><\/div>A white paper on \u2018Internet Governance & Digital Cooperation: A Recommended Way Forward for India\u2019, co-authored by Amrita Choudhury<\/a>, Director, CCAOI and TV Ramachandran, President, BIF was also released.
\u201cIn the changing world order, it is imperative to enhance Indian engagement in global internet governance platforms, supported by adequate multi-stakeholder discussions within the country to formulate an India approach,\u201d said Amrita Choudhury, Director, CCAOI.
