In his remarks at a session during the National Learning Week, jointly organised for all levels of employees of all the Science Ministries and Departments in the national capital, the minister emphasised that the integration between public and private sectors is crucial to the future growth of the country.
"The convergence of public sector requirements, private sector innovations, and government efforts is shaping the next phase of technological advancement in the country," he said.
"Harnessing private sector expertise, combined with government initiatives like BharatGen and AI applications, will pave the way for scalable, inclusive, and efficient solutions for the nation’s diverse needs," Dr Singh added.
BharatGen is an indigenously developed large language model (LLM) tailored for Indian languages.
Dr Singh further said that the government is creating an enabling environment that fosters innovation, supports startups, and ensures that technological advancements align with national priorities.
"When public demands meet private sector creativity, and government policies facilitate growth, we can achieve scalable and sustainable solutions that benefit the entire country," he said.
