  "summary": "Indore Mayor Pushyamitra Bhargav has been invited to the United States to participate in the prestigious International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP). The two-week program will see Bhargav join discussions on artificial intelligence in urban governance, digital public services, technological innovation, and the administrative challenges faced by future cities. Scheduled to attend meetings in five American cities, including Washington, Boston, and a city in Florida, Bhargav's visit is aimed at understanding the political, social, and administrative systems of the United States and exchanging ideas about governance with policymakers, government officials, representatives of non-governmental organisations, industry leaders, experts, and local communities. The program, launched in 1940 by the US Department of State, has seen several prominent Indian leaders participate, including former Prime Ministers Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Indira Gandhi, and Morarji Desai, former President Pratibha Patil, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan.",
