State to train 2.5 lakh people and deploy AI in health, education, fintech and agriculture

Gujarat Unveils 5-Year AI Plan for Governance

In a major push towards digital governance, the Gujarat government has launched its ambitious Artificial Intelligence (AI) Action Plan 2025-2030 to integrate cutting edge technology into public administration. Approved by Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, the five year roadmap aims to strengthen decision-making, streamline service delivery, and enhance transparency through AI powered systems.
The plan is part of the broader Viksit Gujarat@2047 vision and aligns with national goals outlined under Viksit Bharat@2047. A 10-member AI Taskforce Committee, under the Department of Science and Technology, helped frame the strategy.
At the heart of the initiative is a newly established AI and DeepTech Mission, which will spearhead the state&rsquo;s AI deployment, foster collaborations among startups, academia, and industry, and facilitate policy implementation.
The action plan outlines six pillars:

<li style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;" data-start="1324" data-end="1439">
Data Governance: A secure and interoperable digital ecosystem will be created to manage data across sectors.
</li>
<li style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;" data-start="1440" data-end="1556">
Digital Infrastructure: GPU capabilities, cloud storage, and AI factories in smaller cities will be expanded.
</li>
<li style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;" data-start="1557" data-end="1712">
Capacity Building: Over 2.5 lakh individuals including students, MSMEs, and government employees will be trained in AI, ML, and allied technologies.
</li>
<li style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;" data-start="1713" data-end="1824">
Research &amp; Development: Academia and industry will co-develop AI models tailored to public sector needs.
</li>
<li style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;" data-start="1825" data-end="1952">
Startup Ecosystem: DeepTech entrepreneurs will receive incubation, mentorship, infrastructure, and seed funding support.
</li>
<li style="font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;" data-start="1953" data-end="2073">
Ethics and Safety: AI applications will be governed by ethical standards, safety protocols, and audit mechanisms.
</li>
</ol>
Initial phases will include setting up data repositories, development centres, and pilot projects in departments like health and education. The plan builds on Gujarat&rsquo;s existing efforts, such as the AI Centre of Excellence at GIFT City, government staff training programmes, high-performance GPU setup, and an AI Innovation Challenge.
Officials say the roadmap marks Gujarat&rsquo;s firm step toward future ready governance, ensuring citizen centric services powered by responsible AI.
