The initiative reflects the Tripura government’s commitment to adopting emerging technologies to accelerate the state’s development and improve public service delivery..
Speaking to ANI, Gitte Kiran Kumar, the Secretary Health and Family Welfare stated, “The Government of Tripura is known for its transparent and well-needed administration. Our state’s digital governance is recognized across the country. We have implemented excellent digitization processes, digital IDs, and robust software systems. As a result, the government has access to large volumes of data (big data). Now, using AI tools, we aim to make better decisions, work smarter, analyze data for future trends, and implement evidence-based, data-driven policies.”
“Earlier, many government processes were manual and labor-intensive. Today, by leveraging AI tools, these processes have become much faster and more efficient, ultimately benefiting the public,” Kumar added.

All secretaries, heads of departments, and IT officers participated.
