 "UPI enabled at 'India’s last tea shop'; Anand Mahindra is all praise")
Digital UPI payment has made financial transactions very easy in India. Nowadays, it has become very common to see boards containing UPI codes in shops across the country. Recently, industrialist Anand Mahindra shared a post on Twitter showing the reach of the digital payment ecosystem. The tweet has a picture of a woman with a UPI QR code scanner in her tea shop. The photo was clicked at Mana village, India’s last village situated at 10,500 feet elevation in Uttarakhand. The hamlet is located around 5 km from Badrinath. In the caption of his tweet, Mahindra wrote that this photo captures the breathtaking scope and scale of India’s digital payments ecosystem. Have a look at this post here:

The tweet received a wide range of reactions. Some users commented how much they are dependent on UPI payment these days, and that they carry very little cash with them.
Yesterday I went out of my house with literally just 3 Rs cash in my pocket.... its funny how much I rely on upi nowadays.
