MP CM Yadav announces AI mission ahead of Simhastha 2028

Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav on Friday said his State will soon roll out an “AI mission” and utilise this scientific tool during the “Simhastha 2028 mela”, apart from benefiting all sections of the society.

Yadav visited the India AI Impact Summit at the Bharat Mandapam here and met global tech leaders to explore potential avenues for “strategic” partnerships, including setting up data centres, as he projected that the State has adequate water, electricity and “land bank” for these processes.

“We are the fifth-largest State in the country and have strong credentials regarding resources and facilities. “I visited the AI summit with my officers because we plan to utilise artificial intelligence to better the lives of our people in the fields of agriculture, education and healthcare, among others,” Yadav told reporters at a press conference.

He said his government’s focus area is also using AI to improve agricultural processes, crop diversification and enhance farmers’ income and facilities, as Madhya Pradesh is an agrarian State and its foodgrain production ranks among the top in the country.
