Paris : Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday (June 18, 2026) asserted that technology can lead to progress only if it is democratised and said AI means “All Inclusive” for India.
His remarks at a global technology summit come against the backdrop of the U.S. restricting the use of Anthropic’s latest Artificial Intelligence (AI) models for foreign nationals.
Highlighting India’s growing prowess in the technology space, Mr. Modi said half of the global digital transactions are happening in the country.
In the last decade, he said, India has been going through a rapid transformation powered by technology.
“From creating the world’s largest digital identity system to the world’s largest digital payments platforms, we are using technology at a massive scale for financial inclusion, education, telemedicine…,” he added.
Vivatech is Europe’s foremost gathering of technology and innovation, and India has set up the largest national pavilion at this edition as a symbol of the potential for partnership between Indian and European innovation ecosystems. (Agencies)
