New Delhi, August 19: Prime Minister Narendra Modi highlighted the transformative impact of Jan Dhan, Aadhaar, and mobile phones on financial transactions. Speaking virtually at the G20 Digital Economy Ministers' meeting, Modi underscored their role in revolutionizing the landscape.

During his address, Modi revealed, "We are developing Bhashini, an AI-powered language translation platform. This will facilitate digital inclusion across India's diverse languages."

Emphasizing the potential of India's digital public infrastructure, Modi remarked that it offers scalable, secure, and inclusive solutions for global challenges. He added that India, with its remarkable linguistic diversity and representation of every global religion, offers a unique environment for development and innovation.

India's richness in both ancient traditions and cutting-edge technology positions it as an ideal testing ground for solutions. Modi asserted that India is prepared to share its experiences with the world, exemplified by the creation of the online global public digital goods repository, "India Stacks," ensuring inclusivity at its core.

The PM highlighted that solutions proven successful in India hold relevance on a global scale. The diversity and complexity of India make it a fertile ground for refining and adapting solutions that can then be readily implemented worldwide.
