India in first bouquet of AI Nations, focused on diffusion and ROI: Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw at WEF

• Backbone: IndiaAI Mission (₹10,372 cr, Mar 2024) under MeitY; common compute pool now 38,000 GPUs.
• Examinable as a flagship case of India's digital public infrastructure (DPI) approach extended to AI — relevant to GS-II (governance), GS-III (S&T, economy).
