As technology evolves rapidly, policing must keep pace to stay effective and maintain public trust. Law enforcement needs to be quick, transparent, and accessible. Hence, strengthening and updating digital capabilities play a critical role in bridging the gap between citizen expectations and operational realities. At @EY_India, we are privileged to have partnered with @PoliceRajasthan since 2017 on this transformation journey, supporting the State through the Crime and Criminal Tracking Network & Systems (CCTNS) and a broader policing technology ecosystem anchored in continuous modernisation and future readiness. Our teams support the enhancement, operations and maintenance of core policing platforms including CCTNS, police portals, mobile apps, analytics dashboards, and integrations across the criminal justice ecosystem − Prosecution, Forensic Science Laboratories (FSLs), Jails and Courts via Interoperable Criminal Justice System (ICJS). Alongside this, we continue to drive architecture reviews, technology upgrades, and capacity building of the police’s internal technical teams. This year marked a key milestone with the launch of the Cyber e-FIR system for high-value cyber fraud cases and the e-Visitor system for digital visitor registration across accommodation providers (hotels, resorts, homestays, etc.). The e-Visitor system enables hotels and lodging facilities to record guest details online in a standardised format and share them directly with the police in real time, replacing manual registers and paper submissions. This enhances the accuracy, availability, and timely access of visitor information for monitoring and investigation. Together, the Cyber e-FIR and e-Visitor platforms enable faster reporting and response, improve data accuracy and traceability, and strengthen overall public safety and compliance. Both initiatives were launched by the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Rajasthan. The SOS emergency response service on the RajCop Citizen app, integrated with the Abhay Command Centre, has processed 43,000 distress requests, improving response and public safety outcomes. Rajasthan Police is also among the pioneer states implementing automated FIR classification, enabled by the digitisation of 14,000 legal acts. AI-led capabilities such as FIR summarisation, intelligent search, entity extraction, and case diary automation are further enhancing policing effectiveness. These initiatives are delivering measurable outcomes at scale, supported by widely adopted mobile applications − RajCop Official and RajCop Citizen − with over 20 lakh downloads. Proud to contribute to a future of policing that is intelligent, integrated and citizen-first. @sbansal_in, @RisDelhi #BetterWorkingWorld #PublicSafety #DigitalPolicing #GovernmentTransformation #TechnologyForGood #AIinGovernment

Last week, we had the opportunity to engage with Maharashtra Information Technology Corporation’s TechMahaImpacT Conclave as Knowledge Partners − an important platform exploring how technology can drive the next phase of public sector transformation. The discussions reinforced a key theme: technology, when applied thoughtfully, can significantly enhance governance, service delivery, and citizen outcomes at scale. The conclave featured insightful sessions on AI, digital skills, healthcare innovation, and intelligent digital ecosystems, bringing together government leaders, industry experts, and technology practitioners to exchange perspectives and practical approaches. I am particularly proud of the strong contributions from our team. @anuragdua shared valuable perspectives on AI in governance, highlighting the critical importance of responsible AI adoption, along with robust data privacy, cybersecurity, and transparent governance frameworks. @porwalharish contributed to discussions on building future-ready capabilities, while Meghna Shrimali provided insights on leveraging technology to drive empowerment across aspirational districts. Beyond the dialogue, it was also an opportunity to demonstrate our solutions and engage closely with key stakeholders. @EY_India continues to work closely with the Maharashtra Government in accelerating digital governance initiatives and remains committed to supporting their journey in building scalable, secure, and citizen-centric digital ecosystems. @digital_xformer , Mahesh Wakode, Shuchi Trivedi, Tarun Parihar, Vaibhav Sakhare, @Sagar9192 #TechMahaImpacT #DigitalTransformation #AI #Governance #TechForGood #EY #BetterWorkingWorld

Last week, @EY_India, with the support of the @MinOfPower, along with the Centre for Energy Studies, ASCI, successfully hosted an awareness session on Cybersecurity and the DPDP (Digital Personal Data Protection) Act framework for power sector clients, underscoring the growing priority of data protection across the sector. The session brought together key stakeholders from across the power ecosystem for meaningful discussions on safeguarding critical infrastructure and data. It provided a comprehensive overview of the DPDP Act and its implications, while also delving into emerging cybersecurity threats specific to the power sector. It further explored practical approaches to building a compliance roadmap, highlighted the growing role of AI-led security practices. Rich industry perspectives and panel dialogues further enriched the exchange of ideas. We were pleased to see strong participation from leading organizations such as the Central Electricity Authority (CEA), @ntpclimited , Power Grid Corporation, and various state DISCOMs, among others − collectively reflecting a shared commitment to strengthening cyber resilience. As the power sector continues to rapidly digitize, conversations around data protection and cybersecurity are becoming increasingly critical. It was encouraging to witness the depth of engagement and the quality of discussions throughout the session. We look forward to continuing this dialogue and driving meaningful action across the sector. #CyberSecurity #DPDP #PowerSector #DataProtection #DigitalTransformation #Energy #Resilience #AI #EY #BetterWorkingWorld

Tuesday calls for a Tourism Transformation Tale! Over the past few years, @EY_India has had the privilege of partnering with the Department of Tourism, Government of Odisha as its Project Management Unit − working closely across policy development, investment facilitation, infrastructure planning, branding, and tourism product development. When we began, Odisha held immense, yet underleveraged potential. The opportunity was clear: strengthen policy frameworks, crowd in private investment, and position the state more prominently on the global tourism map. Our approach has been anchored in end-to-end transformation − from shaping the Odisha Tourism Policy 2022 (and its subsequent refinements), to enabling 206 private sector projects across hotels, resorts, eco-lodges, and water parks, unlocking investments of over INR 10,000 crore. In addition, the team has delivered more than 15 integrated destination master plans and structured Public-Private Partnership (PPP) frameworks, enabling the entry of global hospitality brands such as Radisson Hotel Group and Mayfair Hotels & Resorts into underutilized government assets. Equally important has been the focus on experience-led tourism. Initiatives such as Eco Retreat Odisha, Caravan Tourism, Odisha Walks, Boat Races, and Adventure Sports reflect a shift from destination marketing to experiential storytelling. We also provided end-to-end creative and branding support, helping shape Odisha Tourism’s identity − “India’s Best Kept Secret.” The results are encouraging − Odisha’s rising rankings in national tourism indices and a growing digital footprint signal a state on the move. Odisha ranked among the Top 6 Best Performing Big States in Tourism (India Today Survey 2022) and 8th in India for effective social media outreach (Hotelivate Survey Report 2024). What stands out most, however, is the power of sustained, collaborative partnership. This journey reinforces a core belief: when governments and advisors work together with a long-term vision, tourism can become a powerful engine for economic growth, investment, and regional development. Proud to be part of Odisha’s transformation journey and excited about what lies ahead! @MitrabhanuC #TourismTransformation #OdishaTourism #PublicPrivatePartnerships #EconomicGrowth #BetterWorkingWorld #ViksitOdisha

A recent visit to Odisha provided valuable insights into how strong institutions, collaborative leadership, and a sustained emphasis on inclusive growth can collectively drive meaningful transformation. I had the opportunity to engage with the Hon’ble Deputy Chief Minister Shri K V Singh Deo @KVSinghDeo1, as well as senior Secretaries and Commissioners across key departments, to discuss the State’s development priorities and its continued efforts to advance economic growth and social outcomes. These conversations reflected Odisha’s administrative depth and its long‑term, outcomes‑oriented approach to governance. The discussions focused on enabling district‑led development, strengthening institutional and delivery capacities, and supporting the effective implementation of large‑scale infrastructure initiatives. There was also an emphasis on building resilient economic ecosystems spanning employment generation, entrepreneurship, and inclusion. Additionally, conversations highlighted the role of agri‑exports, crop diversification, and enhanced cold storage and godown capacity in improving farmer incomes and strengthening food security. Sector‑focused interactions with department leadership reinforced the importance of empowering youth, strengthening livelihoods and incomes for fishermen, supporting women‑led economic participation, and fostering sustainable growth across MSMEs and emerging sectors. Discussions also touched upon the evolving role of higher education in economic development, including efforts to strengthen institutional capabilities and support the internationalization of higher education institutions in the State. The shared intent across these interactions was clear − translating policy ambition into on‑ground impact through collaboration, reform, and execution. Odisha’s journey continues to stand out for its clarity of vision, collaborative governance, and commitment to inclusive outcomes. It was encouraging to exchange ideas on how public institutions and broader ecosystems can work together to support the State’s next phase of growth. @EY_India looks forward to continued engagement and collaboration. @MitrabhanuC #Odisha #ViksitOdisha #BetterWorkingWorld

It was a pleasure meeting the Hon’ble Deputy Chief Minister of Odisha, Shri K V Singh Deo @KVSinghDeo1 , and engaging in a thoughtful discussion on Agriculture and Energy − two key pillars for Odisha’s growth ambitions. We discussed sectoral challenges, global and national best practices, and potential pathways forward. @EY_India remains committed to working closely with the Government of Odisha to realise the vision of Viksit Odisha 2036 & 2047. @MitrabhanuC #Odisha #ViksitOdisha #BetterWorkingWorld

India has successfully moved from food scarcity to food security. But is this enough? Persistent challenges such as micronutrient deficiencies, protein inadequacy, and lifestyle‑related disorders continue to affect the population, requiring a shift from quantity to quality. The next frontier, therefore, is nutrition security. The focus must now be on ensuring safe, nutritious, high‑quality food for all. To achieve this, the food processing industry will play a crucial role in delivering trusted products to consumers and strengthening India’s overall nutrition ecosystem. At ASSOCHAM’s National Conference – NutriBharat 2026, the Union Minister of Food Processing Industries, Shri Chirag Paswan, delivered a clear message: the food processing industry is central to enabling nutrition security and strengthening India’s nutrition ecosystem. The conference brought together policymakers, regulators, industry leaders, researchers, and global organizations to discuss innovation, regulatory frameworks, research collaboration, and global opportunities for India’s nutraceutical and functional food sector. A joint report titled “NutriBharat@2047 – India’s Nutritional Transition through Nutraceuticals and Functional Foods”, prepared by @EY_India and @ASSOCHAM4India, was released at the conference. The report outlines strategic pathways to strengthen policy frameworks, foster research‑driven innovation, enhance regulatory clarity, and promote public‑private partnerships – so that nutraceuticals and functional foods become integral to India’s nutrition strategy. It also highlights opportunities for coordinated innovation, policy alignment, and collaboration across stakeholders. I extend my sincere appreciation to the team behind this report – @amitvatsyayan , #AmitBajaj, #TanayJoshi, #EkantVijay, #RupakshiMathur, #SophiaSJoseph, and #VaibhavTomar. Kudos to the entire team, and I look forward to more such compelling work in the future. @EY_India remains committed to advancing nationally important themes – bringing meaningful insights, innovation, out‑of‑the‑box thinking, and cross‑sector collaboration to support India’s vision of Viksit Bharat 2047. 👉 Do take a moment to go through the report for deeper insights - shorturl.at/qxJNh #NutritionSecurity #FoodProcessingIndustry #Nutraceuticals #HealthyIndia #ViksitBharat2047 #EYIndia #BetterWorkingWorld
