Gujarat govt approves five-year action plan for AI implementation
The action plan, which will serve as a time-bound blueprint to equip the state govt with advanced AI capabilities, will be based on six key aspects: data, digital infrastructure, capacity building, research and development, startup facilitation and 'safe and trusted AI', the govt said. Over the next five years, the govt aims to train over 2.5 lakh individuals, including students, MSMEs and govt employees in AI, machine learning (ML) and related domains.
At the annual Chintan Shibir in Somnath in Nov 2024, the CM said that Gujarat will leverage AI across its administrative framework and departments to lead in technology-driven governance and socio-economic progress. Subsequently, a 10-member task force was set up with members from key departments such as healthcare, education, agriculture, fintech and other sectors. Based on the task force's recommendations, the CM approved the AI implementation action plan, an official statement said.

Kinetic DX vs TVS iQube 2.2kWh e-scooters compared: Range, features & more
Kinetic has entered the affordable EV segment with the DX e-scooter, bringing back the nostalgia of the old Kinetic Honda DX in a modern electric avatar. The scooter is priced at Rs 1.12 lakh, and goes up against rivals like the TVS iQube 2.2 kWh, which is priced around Rs 94,434, ex-showroom. But how do these two compare in terms of range, features and performance? Let's take a quick look. Kinetic DX vs TVS iQube 2.2 kWh e-scooter comparison: Starting with the Kinetic Green DX series, both variants come equipped with a 2.6 kWh LFP battery and a 4.8 kW hub motor. The claimed IDC range stands at 102 km for the DX and a higher 116 km for the DX+. Top speed is rated at 80 kmph and 90 kmph respectively. Both models offer three riding modes: Range, Power, and Turbo, and also feature reverse assist, hill hold, and 37-litre underseat storage. The TVS iQube, in comparison, uses a slightly smaller 2.2 kWh battery that delivers a IDC range of 94 km. It gets a top speed of 75 kmph and accelerates from 0 to 40 kmph in 4.2 seconds. The iQube comes with two riding modes: Economy and Power, and charges up to 80% in around 2 hours and 45 minutes, little less than the Kinetic scooters' 0-80% in 3 hours. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brain tumor has left my son feeling miserable; please help!

Baghbari to be turned into agri market hub, says DM
1 2 Bhagalpur: The Bhagalpur district administration has drawn up a redevelopment plan to transform the defunct Baghbari premises at Aliganj, in the southern part of the city, into a modern Krishi Utpadan Bazar Samiti (KUBS). The initiative is aimed at streamlining agricultural marketing, ensuring fair trade practices and boosting the district's farming sector. On Monday, district magistrate Nawal Kishor Choudhary, along with officials from the agriculture department, building and bridge construction department and other district authorities, inspected the site and reviewed structural plans and modalities for the redevelopment. Choudhary said the project would be executed in phases. "The Baghbari premises at Aliganj will soon be redeveloped into a contemporary KUBS. In the first phase, Rs 89 crore will be spent on building access roads, warehouses for storing grains, vegetables, fruits, spices and other perishables," he said. The plan includes developing wholesale and retail shops, market yards, auction platforms and extensive storage facilities. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brain tumor has left my son feeling miserable; please help!

The DM said the KUBS would not only support fair trade and timely market information but also help implement govt schemes and strengthen farmer cooperatives. A structural diagram has already been prepared and officials have been asked to initiate work to benefit the farming community.
