Govt to issue consultation paper on a new AI law in ‘coming weeks’: Ashwini Vaishnaw

Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw announced that the government will release a consultation paper on a new Artificial Intelligence (AI) law within the coming weeks. Speaking at the NDTV World Summit in Delhi, Vaishnaw stated that the proposed regulation aims to address the risks of AI while ensuring humans maintain control over the technology.

He emphasized that the government is moving towards a harm-based regulation rather than a licensing regime. Vaishnaw highlighted the need for global alignment on AI regulation and emphasized that India will participate in these discussions as one of the top AI ecosystems.
