India ready to share AI models with Global South: S Krishnan
The Indian government is open to sharing its AI models with the Global South after achieving reasonable capacity and scale, a senior government official said on Friday. While speaking at FICCI's conference Bhashantara 2025, Electronics and IT Secretary S Krishnan said that the development of technology for languages to help people communicate in a frictionless manner can lead to huge value addition to the economy. He said that the UN Under-Secretary-General, during a visit to India, had appreciated India's AI-related works. 'We had a discussion and then he said your model appears interesting. At a stage when you have adequate capacity both in terms of compute and in terms of the kind of models that you have, will you be willing to share this with the Global South? This is something that we have declared that we are open to doing and something that we will do,' Krishnan said. The Global South term refers to developing and less-developed countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America regions. The government has launched the Bhashini project for the development of AI-based language translation technology. Krishnan said most people in the country would prefer to communicate through voice as opposed to in writing. 'I think voice-based communication has a critical role to play and that is where India can truly lead. The minute you say it is voice, then it means that you have to pick it up in the language that they are most comfortable with and what they would like to speak in. This is clearly the challenge that there are a number of researchers, a number of innovators and others who are addressing nationwide,' he said. 'With more than 6 billion people globally not speaking English as their primary language and India home to 19,500 languages and dialects, data emphasised the vast commercial opportunities that lay ahead,' he said. Data said that website names in local scripts will ease communication for the vernacular masses.

Detainees being released, but crackdown on ‘illegal immigrants' continues in Gurugram
In a major crackdown, the Gurugram police have detained individuals for allegedly staying in the city without valid documents as part of a special drive being carried out in adherence to orders from the Ministry of Home Affairs to identify and deport 'illegal immigrants'. Over the past week, hundreds of suspected 'illegal immigrants' were reportedly sent to detention centres for verification of documents. However, the drive has drawn widespread criticism over the alleged harassment of detainees and targeting of Bengali-speaking migrant workers from Assam and West Bengal. A visit on Sunday (July 27, 2025) to the special holding centres designated by the district administration showed that many detainees were being released. The special holding centre in Gurugram's Sector 10A, a dimly-lit hall at a community centre, stood empty with only a pile of carpets and a few packets of 'pav (bread)' lying in a dark corner. 'There were around 70 Bengali-speaking people kept in this room three days ago. Most of them were from Assam and West Bengal. They were all kept locked inside this room with four policemen keeping guard outside. But they were all let off two days ago,' said Krishna, the security guard at the community centre. Pritam, the lone sanitation worker at the centre, recalled struggling to keep the premises clean with numerous detainees sharing a single toilet. 'It's good that they have gone. The police personnel have also left. I hope they won't return,' he said. Three other such centres have been set up in Gurugram's Sector 40, Manesar's Sector 1, and Badshahpur to detain Bangladeshi nationals and Rohingya refugees found to be staying illegally in the country. The holding centre at Manesar is also currently empty. According to the security guard, 35 of the 45 detainees were released by the police a couple of days ago, while 10 were taken away in a police vehicle. A constable deployed at the centre said despite the reduced number of detainees, 10 police personnel remained deployed there. 'The holding centre has not been shut. No fresh raids are being carried out as the police are busy holding the two-day Common Eligibility Test across the State. More detainees could come tomorrow (Monday) morning,' said the constable from the Pataudi police station. He added that he was part of the team conducting raids to identify and apprehend 'illegal immigrants', but declined to be identified. 'Special teams have been constituted in each police station to hold the raids, which are mostly conducted in the early hours of the day. The raids have been going on for the past 20 days, but these centres were set up a week ago,' he said. At the centre in Gurugram's Sector 40, several policemen were found playing cards and they said there was currently only one detainee. 'We are here as more detainees could come,' one of them said. Gurugram Police spokesperson Assistant Sub-Inspector Sandeep Kumar confirmed that the drive was still ongoing and suspects would be brought to the holding centres for further probe. 'Only those suspected of staying illegally in the country are brought to these centres. Those without identity documents or found making calls to Bangladesh, raising suspicion, are detained for further investigation,' he said. Basra, a 50-year-old meat shop owner in Chakkarpur's 'Macchi Mandi', said there have been no fresh police raids in the area over the past two days. 'The police teams came two or three times last week to check documents, but there have been no raids now,' he said. Meanwhile, Nuh MLA and former Haryana Transport Minister Aftab Ahmed condemned the treatment of migrant workers from Assam and West Bengal, mostly Muslims, during the verification drive, calling it 'inhuman, shameful, and unfortunate'. Mr. Ahmed alleged that the drive was creating an environment of fear, forcing people to flee Gurugram. Drawing a parallel with the treatment of non-Marathi speakers in Maharashtra, he claimed the Gurugram police were similarly targeting citizens in Haryana. He added that he has brought this matter to the attention of the State Director General of Police.
