Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi hosted the India AI Impact Summit 2026, a global congregation underscoring India’s tech ambitions. Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s plenary address galvanized leaders from 100 countries.
In his remarks, BJP MP Sudhanshu Trivedi lauded the summit’s achievement, thanking PM Modi and IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw. He called it a proud milestone for Indians, though surprising to some.
Referencing a former finance minister’s claim that Indians couldn’t handle new tech like digital payments, Trivedi highlighted India’s current number-one status in transactions and its pivotal role in AI.
Under Modi’s guidance, this progress materialized, with Vaishnaw’s contributions pivotal. Trivedi insisted critics own up to their past dismissals. This summit, he said, confirms India’s aptitude to spearhead novel tech in Amrit Kaal.
Party gratitude flowed to Modi for this glorious phase in India’s history. The event reinforces India’s narrative as a tech vanguard, fostering international partnerships and innovation ecosystems for the future.
