Dhawan urges all to move towards cashless India

ITANAGAR, Aug 27: Facilitating traders here to step up from traditional to cashless mode of transactions under the Indian government’s Digital India initiative, the ‘Ongo Mini ATM’ was launched today by Deputy Commissioner, Itanagar capital complex, Prince Dhawan at Akashdeep here.

The ‘Ongo Mini ATM’ runs on Ongo app platform which is developed by India Transact Services Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of AGS Transact Technologies Ltd, the leading banking payment solution provider in the country.

The core services provide by the mini ATM are the point of sale (POS), instant withdrawal of money with any debit card, transfer of money, billing, etc. The services of ‘Ongo Mini ATM’ are approved by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).

Addressing the gathering, Dhawan urged everyone to move towards cashless India, and also appealed them to support the initiative. He also informed that they are trying to first make Akashdeep a digital market place and will move to other complexes and markets gradually.

The project is being undertaken by the Quantone Traders Pvt Ltd in the Northeast region and was initiated by its franchise owner Dongche Hapung.

Speaking to the media, regional project head Krishna Basumatary informed that the mini ATM which also works as POS machine will be highly beneficial for traders as they have to make onetime payment of about Rs 15000, and is covered by life time warranty as opposed to the POS machines currently issued by banks on rental basis.  

 

Also present was Itanagar Market Welfare Association (IMWA), President, Yumlam Achung.
