Built as a novel concept to ‘democratise’ e-commerce in India, ONDC has seen limited success in specific pockets. But it’s still an emerging player in a highly competitive market.
Food delivery and e-commerce are two sectors where the government has created an indirect mechanism to stop the duopoly system, without clipping the wings of the giants.
Indian government-backed non-profit digital commerce initiative, ONDC offers an open source network for all to exchange goods and services and is independent of any specific platform.
On 29 May 1951, Jawaharlal Nehru defended adding 'reasonable restrictions' to Article 19, arguing that free speech must be balanced with national security and unity.
This is the game every nation is now learning to play. Some are finding new allies or seeing value among nations where they’d seen marginal interest. The starkest example is India & Europe.
