India: AI Training and Free Coaching: How Modi Wants to Win Over India's Youth
India's youth are angry about poor opportunities for advancement and are putting pressure on the government. Prime Minister Modi is now providing an answer - and wants to become an influencer on the side.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has made several announcements to address growing discontent among the country's youth. Speaking on the 80th anniversary of India's independence, Modi promised to train 10 million young people in artificial intelligence and provide free online coaching to help them prepare for highly competitive exams.
The move comes amid widespread protests by young people demanding better job opportunities and greater access to education. With youth unemployment among 15- to 29-year-olds at over 16%, Modi also pledged to prioritize the needs of young people, saying they will be at the center of his policy.
