MUMBAI: India is preparing to pull AI into the core of its digital public infrastructure, a shift that Abhishek Singh, Additional Secretary at the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology and CEO of the India AI Mission, said is becoming urgent as the country’s AI usage rises faster than its capacity to build domestic systems.
The move comes amid growing concerns that foreign AI platforms are training on Indian data at a massive scale, potentially shaping essential services that millions of citizens will rely on.
Speaking at the Mint All About AI Tech4Good Awards, Singh told industry leaders and policymakers that India’s digital public infrastructure has already reshaped governance but now needs an AI layer to reach the last mile.
“We have shown what technology can do for good governance, ” he said, adding, “The next step is to ensure AI makes these services accessible in every Indian language.” The government’s push is anchored in a voice-driven approach.
