PM Modi articulated his vision for a digitally inclusive India, emphasizing his commitment to preventing a digital divide by extending infrastructure to the remotest villages. He shared anecdotes from the ‘Namo Drone Didi’ scheme, highlighting the transformative power of technology in changing mindsets and empowering women.

Bill Gates expressed admiration for India’s rapid technological adoption and innovation, particularly in the context of Green GDP and sustainable development.
