Global telecom body to prioritize int'l standards on DPI, AI after India push
Business Standard
|October 25, 2024
The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA 2024) has adopted two key resolutions proposed by India on digital public infrastructure (DPI) and artificial intelligence (AI).
The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) will now prioritize standardization in these areas, both of which have been pushed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The ITU, a specialized United Nations agency for information and communication technologies of which India is a part, conducts the WTSA every four years to plan its standardization programme.
Concluding on Thursday, the WTSA reviewed and modified existing guidance and agreed on six other new resolutions, all supported by India.
India had specifically pushed the global body to adopt a focused approach towards DPI, a collection of technologies that promotes interoperability, openness and inclusion to deliver vital public and private services, including access to credit and marketing.
