New Delhi: The government-run Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) has empowered small businesses and revolutionised e-commerce, said Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday. ONDC - a network of more than 200 apps, including buyer apps and seller apps - was launched in 2021 to democratise e-commerce in India. The PM said that ONDC has been enabling growth and prosperity in the country.
“ONDC has contributed to empowering small businesses and revolutionising e-commerce, thus playing a vital role in furthering growth and prosperity,” said PM Modi, in a post on social media platform X. The Prime Minister said this quoting a post by Piyush Goyal, Union Minister of Commerce and Industry. Goyal noted that ONDC has revolutionised the country’s e-commerce landscape; and has bridged the gap between sellers and buyers.
ONDC has built ‘a robust and inclusive digital marketplace’, Goyal said. He added that in the last year, the network has “not only achieved numerous milestones, but also empowered businesses, especially small enterprises, by creating a level playing field for them on the network”.
