Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary said that the state government will soon introduce an artificial intelligence policy to transform the region [1].
The initiative aims to modernize public administration and service delivery in one of India's most populous states. By integrating AI into governance, the government seeks to increase transparency in welfare schemes, and accelerate the resolution of citizen complaints [1], [2].
Choudhary said the policy is designed to position Bihar as a major AI hub. The state intends to use these technologies to improve infrastructure and drive overall development across the region [1], [2]. This digital shift is part of a broader effort to attract technology investments and foster a knowledge-based economy.
Beyond artificial intelligence, the state is pursuing other modernization goals. Bihar has set a target of 30% electric-vehicle sales by 2030 [3]. This push for green transition accompanies the AI mission as the state attempts to upgrade its industrial and environmental landscape [3].
Government officials said the AI policy will focus on enhancing the efficiency of government operations. The state intends to use the technology to bridge gaps in service delivery, and ensure that welfare benefits reach intended recipients more effectively [1], [2].
“The state government will soon introduce an artificial intelligence policy to transform the region.”
The move signals Bihar's attempt to leapfrog traditional industrial development by adopting frontier technologies. By pairing an AI policy with an electric-vehicle mandate, the state is attempting to pivot its economic identity toward high-tech and sustainable infrastructure to attract national and international investment.
