The Indian Government has played a key role in integrating IoT into its modernization efforts, such as the Smart Cities Mission and Digital India program, though progress has been slower than anticipated. While IoT remains important, AI has taken center stage, dominating industry focus with its transformative potential in sectors like governance and public services.
The government’s adoption of IoT and AI is crucial for improving urban management, decision-making, and administrative efficiency. However, challenges in policy, security frameworks, and global standards hinder wider IoT deployment, emphasizing the need for unified digital governance to harness their full potential.
