Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

BHASHINI

Take a look at the look at the following news :

 

Govt to Increase Adoption of Bhashini, Seeks Bids from Colleges and Universities

 

Extract :

 

In a move to increase adoption of Bhashini, the natural language processing service, the government has sought bids from higher education institutes and standalone start-up incubators, as per a report by the Economic Times.

 

The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), in its request-for-empanelment tender, has stated that the higher education institutes and incubators applying for the programme should work towards enhancing and increasing the adoption of the Bhashini platform across all Indian languages and geographies. 

 

The IT ministry has asked the bids to be submitted by July 10.

 

It further stressed that higher education institutes must also “dedicate research efforts to improve the capabilities of the BHASHINI platform for under-resourced Indian languages with the limited digital presence” and explore collaborations with linguistic communities for data collection and annotation.

 

Bhashini, earlier known as the National Language Translation Mission, helps in facilitating real-time translation of local Indian languages through open-source databases and translation tools.

 

It was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the inauguration of the Digital India Week at Gandhinagar, Gujarat in 2022.

 

An AI-driven language translation system, it helps in breaking down language barriers and enabling conversations between speakers of different Indian languages. It is available on Android and iOS, providing a user-friendly experience.

 

 

 

Currently , in My Teacher , we ( I believe ) use Google Translate

 

Do Bhashini offer similar facility through API ?  If yes , some future day , it might help to switch over
