Ola Krutrim rolled out a Kannada voice bot on Karnataka gram panchayat helplines to triage land-record and pension queries before routing callers to clerks.

Six states will route block-level grievances through a vernacular large-language-model triage layer before files reach district collectors.

Centre for Development of Advanced Computing engineers began piloting an air-gapped large-language-model gateway for state data centres, routing IndiaAI Mission compute through on-prem inference after MeitY security auditors barred direct cloud API calls for classified workflows.

Electronics and IT minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said MeitY will publish a regulation-focused AI consultation paper within a month, stressing safety, deepfake harms and industry-led compliance alongside a 5,000-GPU tender tranche.

MeitY named three hyperscale bidders for a sovereign AI compute campus near Delhi, with rack-density rules and domestic water-recycling targets attached to the lease.

MeitY is rolling out citizen-facing briefings on synthetically generated information labeling duties under amended IT Rules, aligning with Cyber Security Awareness Month outreach across ministries.
