Abstract

Mobile Phone plays a vital role in today’s life. It was considered as a luxury before. Over a period of time, because of rise in technology mobile phones are now considered as necessity rather than just being a luxury in a common man’s life. Previously, mobile phones were used only by the rich people and business personnel, but now every kid next door has a mobile phone in his hand. Out of' 121 crore Indians, 83.3 crore live in rural areas while 37.7 crore stay in urban areas, according to the Census of India’s 2011 Provisional population count of rural-urban distribution in the country, released by Union Home Secretary, R.K.Singh. Out of the rural population, only 38% uses cell phones. The reason behind such fewer figures is because of lack of technology knowledge and illiteracy. Even the elderly people face the problem of accessing cell phone due to lack of technology knowledge in urban area. The SMART Mobile Phone can help them to access cell phone easily without even having much technical knowledge.
