Haryana to Soon Be Developed as a Major Artificial Intelligence Hub-Arti Singh Rao

Chandigarh, September 7 – Haryana Health Minister, Ms Arti Singh Rao, said that under the leadership of Chief Minister Sh. Nayab Singh Saini, the State Government is continuously taking landmark steps to digitally empower Haryana and equip it with cutting-edge technology. Haryana will soon become a major Artificial Intelligence (AI) hub, she said.

The Health Minister said that to strengthen e-governance and ensure that services reach the last person, 25,201 Atal Seva Kendras have been registered in the State so far, of which 17,085 are successfully operational in rural areas and 8,116 in urban areas. In addition, 946 online services and schemes of 75 departments, boards and corporations are being made available to citizens from the convenience of their homes through the Antyodaya SARAL Portal.

She said that, taking another step towards digital empowerment, Haryana has emerged as a leading State in the country in adopting the Central Government’s DigiLocker service. At present, 228 types of documents and certificates are readily available for digital verification through the service.

Ms Arti Singh Rao said the Lokayukta Portal is being operated to provide transparent services to the public, while dedicated official websites have been developed for all districts of the State. To strengthen digital connectivity in rural areas, 8,468 Wi-Fi hotspots have been installed in Gram Panchayats. At the same time, to bring greater efficiency and speed to administrative functioning, work is being carried out through ‘e-Office’ in 44 departments and all districts of the State.

Terming the prompt resolution of public grievances as a top priority of the government, the Health Minister said ‘CM Window’ has been introduced at every district headquarters. Through this mechanism, more than 15.32 lakh grievances had been successfully resolved up to August 31, 2026. The government has also developed a new in-house system, the ‘Social Media Grievance Tracker’, to monitor grievances received through social media and their redressal.

She further said that besides these achievements, a mechanism has been put in place to safeguard citizens’ rights under which, if an applicant does not receive a service within the prescribed timeframe, the application is automatically escalated to the Appellate Authority.

Ms Arti Singh Rao reiterated that through these digital initiatives, the Haryana Government is committed to ensuring transparent, swift and accountable governance across the State.
