Nearly 25% of Indian grown-ups can't write or even read, and gender discrimination must be tended to with adequate investments, especially in education & training of rural women. Geographical use of new innovations is as yet constrained in rural zones; numerous farmers are still in the dark about these advances. Deficient network in these regions alongside an absence of essential knowledge of computers and thwarted literacy development all contribute towards the major problems. Considerable investment is required in education, infrastructure, transportation, broadband and power, especially in villages and among the poorest populaces with a specific end goal to really reap the benefits of the 4IR.
