The solution is already being tested in the state of Telanganaon registering property rights on the blockchain. Also, a blockchain-based Proof of Existence (PoE) concept will be developed, which can be used to confirm the authenticity of diplomas, certificates, contracts and other documents.

Apparently India is set to followfollowing the example of China - ban cryptocurrencies, but accept blockchain. Next year, a hearing will take place regarding the ban on banking services for cryptocurrency companies, which was introduced a year and a half ago. But perhaps India will completely ban the use of cryptocurrencies.
