My Keynote Address at the Special Session on “Future-Proofing India’s #DataCentres: Resilient Supply Chains and Opportunities”, organised by #AMCHAM India, New Delhi. Takeaways: "We are entering a decisive phase where data centres, Artificial Intelligence, Quantum technologies and next-generation digital infrastructure will shape the future global economic order. India is fully prepared to emerge as a trusted global data centre hub backed by policy reforms, private sector participation, clean energy integration and a rapidly expanding innovation ecosystem. India’s data centre capacity is projected to grow from 1.5 GW to nearly 6.5 GW by 2030 and the ongoing expansion is expected to generate nearly one lakh engineering jobs in areas such as AI systems, cooling technologies, smart grids, renewable energy integration and advanced digital infrastructure. At the same time, India’s rapidly evolving ecosystem driven by AI, 6G, semiconductors and digital public infrastructure is creating unprecedented opportunities for global investments. Several bold and transformative decisions have been taken by the government headed by PM @narendramodi, to prepare India for future technologies and strategic industries. These include long-term tax incentives for foreign cloud service providers, the National Research Foundation, the Semiconductor Mission and the opening of sectors such as space and nuclear energy to private players".

Nature’s diversity is the foundation of life. This International Day for Biological Diversity, let’s unite to protect ecosystems, conserve species, and build a sustainable future for generations to come. Together, every action counts towards a healthier planet for all. #InternationalDayForBiologicalDiversity #Biodiversity #ProtectNature #SustainableFuture @DrJitendraSingh @rajesh_gokhale @moefcc

At the #UMMIDInitiative 2026 event, Hon’ble Union Minister @DrJitendraSingh highlighted that over the last 12 years, under the leadership of Hon’ble PM Shri @NarendraModi, healthcare has been strengthened around the ‘3As’ — affordable, accessible and available healthcare. From early detection and preventive wellness to expanding wellness centres, UMMID-led training programmes and the transformative reach of #AyushmanBharat, India’s healthcare ecosystem is steadily becoming more inclusive, citizen-centric and future-ready. @rajesh_gokhale @DBTIndia @CSIR_IND @moesgoi

Dedicated the #UMMID (Unique Methods of Management of Inherited Disorders) Programme for Rare Genetic Disorders/ Diseases to the Nation. Possibly the first of it's kind, the programme has been designed by the Department of Biotechnology, Ministry of Science & Technology. My Address Takeaways: "India is steadily entering an era where healthcare, diagnosis and treatment will increasingly become genome-based, precision-driven and individualized according to the genetic profile of every patient. Inherited Rare Genetic Disorders or Diseases remained neglected for decades because diagnosis itself was difficult, treatment inaccessible and medicines either unavailable or prohibitively expensive, making it essential to build a coordinated national mechanism to make diagnosis and management feasible, affordable and accessible for all families.  Rare Genetic Disorders represent a silent but deeply challenging public health burden, where families often spend years moving from one hospital to another in search of diagnosis and treatment. Despite affecting comparatively smaller populations, these disorders impose enormous emotional, social and financial hardship on affected families. UMMID is a major step towards mitigation of the ordeal of families affected by Rare Genetic Disorders , and in general also towards the future of precision medicine in India, the Minister said the initiative would also prepare the country’s healthcare ecosystem for the next generation of gene and genome-based medical care".
