Explanation

The correct answer is 3 only.

The Digital India plan focuses on bridging the digital divide and increasing access to technology, which aligns with option 3 of connecting villages, schools, and public spaces to the internet.

Option 1 is not a core aim of the plan, though it may indirectly encourage domestic companies. Option 2 goes against the Digital India vision of empowering citizens and potentially raises privacy concerns.
