The Indian government's drive for inclusivity took another step forward with the Panchayati Raj Ministry signing an MoU with the Digital India Bhashini Division. This deal will bring the ministry's platforms to all Indian regional languages, using AI-driven language translation technology.
Minister of State for Panchayati Raj SP Singh Baghel emphasized the agreement's role in strengthening national unity. He highlighted that it would alleviate feelings of inferiority related to not knowing English, while reducing tensions stemming from language divides.
The MoU aims to integrate Bhashini, an initiative by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, into Panchayati Raj Ministry platforms. The agreement will foster an inclusive digital transformation, marking a significant step toward eradicating language barriers across India's rural landscape.
