BHASHINI Rajyam Workshop – Uttarakhand Chapter
The BHASHINI Rajyam journey now arrives in Uttarakhand — a land where mountains echo not just natural beauty, but also a rich heritage of languages, dialects, and community voices that shape its cultural identity.
The Digital India BHASHINI Division (DIBD), MeitY, in collaboration with the Department of Information Technology & Communication, Govt. of Uttarakhand, is proud to host the BHASHINI Rajyam Workshop – Uttarakhand Chapter — a significant step toward building voice-enabled, inclusive, and accessible digital governance for every citizen of the state.
With the theme
“Through BHASHINI’s AI-Driven Language Innovation and Voice-First Productivity, Advancing and Empowering Garhwali & Kumaoni”
the workshop focuses on how technology can truly listen, understand, and serve citizens in their own languages — ensuring that language becomes a bridge to empowerment, not a barrier.
Key Highlights of the Workshop
1. Integration of Garhwali and Kumaoni into the BHASHINI AI ecosystem
2. Live demonstrations of BHASHINI’s multilingual tools, platforms, and voice technologies
3. Community participation through BhashaDaan, strengthening citizen-led language contributions
4. Thoughtful discussions on Uttarakhand’s linguistic diversity and digital accessibility
A collaborative roadmap for inclusive, citizen-centric governance powered by local languages

Together, this workshop reinforces a shared commitment to a multilingual, citizen-first Digital India, where technology adapts to people — not the other way around.
As BHASHINI Rajyam continues its journey across states, Uttarakhand stands tall as a voice of inclusion, innovation, and collaboration, ensuring that every citizen is heard, understood, and digitally empowered.
