On one side, while a legend like Nandan Nilkani is associated with it, on the other side, Anand Mahindra himself had all praises for the ONDC initiative, this is expected to be as revolutionary as UPI itself!!

Comment: Instead of an intergrates open Network, can we have a Community Owned and Run Network, which also uses the ONDC for access to other suppliers, but one mainly patronises local stores, producers, services.. where surpluses are ploguhed back into the local economy...
