ಮೇನ್ಸ್
GS-III (Science and Technology) and GS-II (e-governance): language barriers limit citizens' access to digital public services. BHASHINI's voice-first, multilingual AI tools such as Shrutlekh support inclusive service delivery and officer training under Digital India. The way forward lies in quality datasets for low-resource languages, data privacy safeguards and wider adoption across State governments.
