Syllabus

• Mains – GS 2 (Polity and Governance)

Context: Given the large migrant population in Karnataka, Lokniti-Centre for the Study of Developing Societies conducted a study among the migrant voters of Bengaluru to find out their voting patterns.

About Migrant Worker:

• A migrant worker is a person who migrates within a home country or outside it to pursue work.
  • Migrant workers usually do not have the intention to stay permanently in the country or region in which they work.
• In India, Migrant workers usually refer to those who engage in internal migration within the country, often for the purpose of seeking employment.
• Internal migration refers to the movement of people from one place to another within the same country.

Internal migration in India:

• As per census 2011, the total number of internal migrants in India is 36 crore or 37% of the country’s population.
• The Economic Survey pegged the size of the migrant workforce at roughly 20 per cent or over 10 crore in 2016.
• Major origin states of internal migration: Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, and Odisha.
• Major destination states of internal migration: Maharashtra, Delhi, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Punjab.
• Sectoral composition: The share of migrant workers is the highest in the construction sector for females while the highest number of male migrant workers are employed in public services (transport, postal, public administration services) and modern services (financial intermediation, real estate, renting, education, health).

About Remote Voting:

• Any method that enables voters to cast their ballots from locations other than the polling place designated for their registration address is referred to as remote voting.
• Both domestically and internationally may be used as the remote voting location. It includes both non-electronic and electronic voting processes.
• A “Committee of Officers on Domestic Migrants” was established by the Election Commission of India (ECI) earlier to handle this problem.
• A solution in the form of “remote voting” was proposed in the Committee’s 2016 report.

Migration and  Remote Voting

• Migrant workers across India are often apprehensive about registering themselves as voters in any other State apart from their home State. This is due to various reasons such as
  • frequent changes in residence,
  • fear of losing property in their home State, and
  • their inability or unwillingness to bring their families with them as well.
  • The migrants often convey that the locality were not safe for women.

Remote Electronic Voting Machine:

Source: The Hindu

• Remote Electronic Voting Machine (RVM), allows domestic migrants to vote in national and regional elections.
• The EC proposed using this in a State Assembly election as a pilot so internal migrants within a state can cast their ballots.

Features of RVM:

• It is a standalone, non-networked system having the same security features as the existing Indian EVMs and provides the same voting experience to the voter as the EVM.
• The RVM system is essentially a modified version of the existing EVM system.
• A single Ballot Unit (BU) can cater to multiple AC/ PCs at a single polling station by using a dynamic ballot display instead of the usually printed paper ballot sheet on BU.

Significance of RVM:

• Increasing voters’ participation: It will enable a voter, who is listed in constituencies, to exercise voting rights from a single machine.
• Ease of Voting: Migrant voters need not travel to their home district to exercise their voting rights.
• Vibrant Democracy: It will enable approximately 30 crore electors, currently not exercising their franchise, to vote.
• Safety and Security: Remote e-voting machine will be a standalone device which doesn’t need connectivity to operate.

Concerns with RVM:

• Inclusive definition of migrants: Migrants are not a uniform and defined class, with fluid identities, locations and situations.
• Trust Issue: Various countries have already rejected EVMs for paper-based ballots.
• Hacking Probability: RVMs with more technological components are bound to raise further questions.
• Lack of Level Playing Field: Remote voting can theoretically provide an added edge to bigger parties and richer candidates who can campaign across the constituency and beyond.
• Model Code of Conduct: There is no clarity about how Model Code of Conduct will be implemented in the remote constituencies.

Way Forward:

Lakhs of migrants not only have they left their home States, they have also given up on significant rights. While elections are an opportunity for people to exercise their fundamental rights, the votes of migrant voters have been missing for years. While the ECI’s move provides a ray of hope to millions of migrant workers, two crucial priorities ahead are to create awareness about the initiative and ensure transparency.

Syllabus

• Mains – GS 2 (Governance) and GS 3 (Economy)

Context: The ONDC (Open Network for Digital Commerce) is gradually challenging the dominance of Zomato and Swiggy by offering users cheaper prices for the same food items.

About ONDC Project:

Source:   The Hindu

• Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) is an initiative aiming at promoting open networks for all aspects of exchange of goods and services over digital or electronic networks.
• ONDC is to be based on open-sourced methodology, using open specifications and open network protocols independent of any specific platform.
• It is a non-profit initiative of the Department of Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Ministry of Commerce.
• Currently, grocery and food items merchants are mostly part of it, but beauty, fashion, personal care products, and electronics, among others, are gradually joining in
• Currently, there are partners like Paytm, Meesho, Magicpin, Mystore, Craftsvilla, and Spice Money, which act as online storefronts, allowing users to order food or any other product from a business listed on the ONDC platform.

Significance of ONDC:

• On ONDC, buyers and sellers may transact irrespective of the fact that they are attached to one specific e-commerce portal.
  • This could give a huge booster shot to smaller online retailers and new entrants.
• However, if mandated, this could be problematic for larger e-commerce companies, which have their own processes and technology deployed for these segments of operations.
• ONDC is expected to digitise the entire value chain, standardise operations, promote inclusion of suppliers, derive efficiency in logistics and enhance value for consumers.
• The platform envisages equal-opportunity participation and is expected to make e-commerce more inclusive and accessible for consumers as they can potentially discover any seller, product or service by using any compatible application/platform, thus increasing their freedom of choice.
• It will enable transactions of any denomination, thus making ONDC a truly ‘open network for democratic commerce’.
• Over the next five years, the ONDC expects to bring on board 90 crore users and 12 lakh sellers on the network, enabling 730 crore additional purchases.

Challenges with ONDC:

• Threat to Local businesses in the long run: The local business will find it extremely challenging to compete with the discounts, sales and other lucrative offers, being offered by prominent e-commerce players which may result in local business being squeezed out of the network in the long run.
• Silent on liability for a bad product: The strategy paper is silent on the issues regarding liability on the network in case consumers faced issues regarding transactions, delivery of substandard products and service.
• No clarity on how existing laws will apply: There is also a lack of clarity on the applicability of the existing e-commerce laws to the network.

Indian e-commerce Industry:

• Growth: The Indian e-commerce industry has been on an upward growth trajectory. The Indian e-commerce market was estimated to be worth over $55 Bn in Gross Merchandise Value in 2021.
  • By 2030, it is expected to have an annual gross merchandise value of $350 Bn.
• Factors of Growth: Fuelling e-commerce growth, India is expected to have over 907 million internet users by 2023, which accounts for ~64% of the total population of the country.
  • The e-commerce industry in India is growing on levers such as increased smartphone penetration, increased affluence and low data prices, providing impetus for e-retail growth.
  • India is the 2nd largest internet market in the world with ~62 billion UPI transactions in 2022.
  • Electronics and apparel make up nearly 70 per cent of the e-commerce market, when evaluated against transaction value.
  • Other new upcoming categories within e-commerce include ed-tech, hyperlocal and food-tech.
• Gaining Popularity in tier-2 and tier-3 cities: The e-commerce trend is gaining major popularity even in tier-2 and tier– 3 cities as they now make up nearly half of all shoppers and contribute three of every five orders for leading e-retail platforms.
  • The average selling price (ASP) in tier-2 and smaller towns is only marginally lower than in tier-1/metro cities.

Way Forward:

ONDC must create consumer trust through robust mechanisms for ensuring redressal of grievances of consumers and enforcing transparent policies for returns, refunds and cancellations.

There needs to be a paradigm shift from an operator-driven monolithic platform-centric model to a facilitator-driven, interoperable decentralized network. The policies should be implemented at the network level.
