Addressing 'Bhashantara - Indic Internet: The Foundation of Next Phase of Digital Transformation, organized by FICCI, jointly with  Mr. Chandrasekhar said that our vision is not just connecting every Indian but making sure that the type and the nature of the internet that we experience are defined by open internet along with being safe and trusted. "It is in the area of making the internet available in the language of the Indian consumer’s choice that we are trailing behind. We need to have a real roadmap and we don't want to mandate this. We would like the industry to step up and do on their own," he emphasized.

India, he said is now determined to be the preeminent country in the world to use technology for its advancement, growth, empowering every Indian, improving governance on one hand while creating jobs and investment opportunities on the other hand. We also have to create deep capabilities around emerging areas of future technologies. "We want to use technology in a very deep, positive and accelerated manner to achieve these objectives. Technology and the internet cannot be anything but inclusive," added Mr. Chandrasekhar.

Mr. Ajay Prakash Sawhney, Secretary, Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, Govt. of India said that language options on the internet is a major step that will enable more people to use the platform in a much effective way. "In the National Language Translation mission, we are in the process of drafting a similar National Public Digital platform. This will bring all data and resources that are available which can fuel the growth in technologies in and around Indian languages. In the next 2-3 months we will see this becoming live and will boost to the mission of enabling Indians with the power of language technologies," he added.

Mr.Virat Bhatia, Chairman, FICCI ICT & Mobile Manufacturing Committee said that the Indian language internet users are expected to grow and will account for nearly 75 percent of India's internet user base and he also told us  at that time, how our society uses Indic-Internet , what is the platform we connect to the digital world. He also tells us about the lack of Indic-Internet, how we improve and learn this Indic-Internet.

Dr. Ajay Data, Co-Chair, ICT & Mobile Manufacturing Committee, FICCI and CEO and Founder, Data Xgen Technologies said that while it is true that considerable progress has been made in developing digital content in local languages, the real challenge lies in providing a single platform to the vast arrays of stakeholders to come and work together and this is where FICCI-ILIA plays an important role.
