Earlier on Tuesday, Jaishankar also underlined the important role India plays in the global Artificial Intelligence landscape, noting that several countries, especially those from the Global South, look up to it for inspiration.
He made the remarks while speaking at the Trust and Safety India Festival 2025. As a pre-summit for the February 2026 AI Impact Summit, it kicks off conversations of interest for India and the world.
"India bears a special responsibility because many other nations - especially those of the Global South - they look to us for inspiration, and certainly in the case of the digital public infrastructure."
Highlighting the achievements of India in the last decade when one looks at the scale of delivery, improvement in governance, efficiencies with which public is served, the EAM noted that this is resonating across the world.
"As a Foreign Minister, when I go abroad, this is often the topic of conversation, and I can see very much, this being extrapolated into the world of AI as well", he said. (ANI)
