• A. Aadhaar & UPI
• B. API Setu & DigiLocker
• C. Social Media Platforms
• D. e-Governance Services

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Social Media Platforms

• Focus on Public Infrastructure: India Stack Global's components are primarily digital public goods and government-led initiatives designed to improve governance, financial inclusion, and service delivery. These include projects like Aadhaar (identity), UPI (payments), and DigiLocker (documents).

• Not Commercial Platforms: Unlike social media platforms, which are private commercial enterprises, India Stack Global focuses on foundational, open-source infrastructure that can be used by both government and private companies to build applications and services.

• The Building Blocks: The initiative showcases a set of 15 key projects/platforms, including API Setu, e-Court, e-Hospital, and UMANG. None of these are related to social media.
