mart signals in place, NMC begins installing AI-powered speed radars
1 2 3 Nagpur: With the first phase of the Rs197 crore Integrated Intelligent Traffic Management System (IITMS) project underway, the Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC), through implementing agency Keltron, has now begun deploying AI-powered speed radar systems on the city's major roads. This comes after Keltron completed integration of IITMS at 10 of the 171 identified traffic junctions in the city. The pilot installation of the speed radar system was completed on the busy Omkar Nagar Square–Manewada Square stretch. Equipped with radar sensors, ANPR (automatic number plate recognition) cameras, and high-intensity strobe flash units, the system is capable of detecting over speeding vehicles in real-time, capturing licence plates, and instantly transmitting data to the city's traffic control command centre. "The radar system was successfully calibrated and integrated. Once a vehicle exceeds the speed limit, the system triggers the camera to capture high-resolution images of the number plate, even at night," said a senior Keltron official. The AI-powered enforcement system is a major upgrade under the IITMS project, which aims to modernise traffic management, improve road safety, and bring down accident rates in the city. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The radar unit on the Omkar Nagar–Manewada stretch is the first of many planned across 32 major roads, where traffic volume and speeding are key concerns. At some junctions or routes, multiple radar units will be installed to cover both sides of the carriageway. In parallel, Keltron has also initiated the conversion of 50 traffic intersections under IITMS. This includes the installation of smart traffic signals, vehicle actuated systems, surveillance cameras, and real-time traffic data integration at each junction. These upgrades are part of the wider plan to cover all 171 junctions with intelligent systems. Each radar and junction system is connected to the NMC's centralised traffic control room, allowing real-time monitoring, data collection, and automated violation alerts. Senior civic officials, including the municipal commissioner, are likely to inspect the radar installation site soon. Keltron's technical teams are continuously monitoring the functioning of systems on the ground. The IITMS project is a critical part of Nagpur's Smart City initiative and is expected to transform how traffic is monitored, enforced, and managed in the city.

India can reframe the Artificial Intelligence debate
Less than three years ago, ChatGPT dragged artificial intelligence (AI) out of research laboratories and into living rooms, classrooms and parliaments. Leaders sensed the shock waves instantly. Despite an already crowded summit calendar, three global gatherings on AI followed in quick succession. When New Delhi hosts the AI Impact Summit in February 2026, it can do more than break attendance records. It can show that governments, not just corporations, can steer AI for the public good. India can bridge the divide But the geopolitical climate is far from smooth. War continues in Ukraine. West Asia teeters between flareups. Trade walls are rising faster than regulators can respond. Even the Paris AI Summit (February 2025), meant to unify, ended in division. The United States and the United Kingdom rejected the final text. China welcomed it. The very forum meant to protect humanity's digital future faces the risk of splintering. India has the standing and the credibility to bridge these divides. India's Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology began preparations in earnest. In June, it launched a nationwide consultation through the MyGov platform. Students, researchers, startups, and civil society groups submitted ideas. The brief was simple: show how AI can advance inclusive growth, improve development, and protect the planet. These ideas will shape the agenda and the final declaration. This turned the consultation into capital and gave India a democratic edge no previous host has enjoyed. Here are five suggestions rooted in India's digital experience. They are modest in cost but can be rich in credibility. Pledges and report cards First, measure what matters. India's digital tools prove that technology can serve everyone. Aadhaar provides secure identity to more than a billion people. The Unified Payments Interface (UPI) moves money in seconds. The Summit in 2026 can borrow that spirit. Each delegation could announce one clear goal to achieve within 12 months. A company might cut its data centre electricity use. A university could offer a free AI course for rural girls. A government might translate essential health advice into local languages using AI. All pledges could be listed on a public website and tracked through a scoreboard a year later. Report cards are more interesting than press releases. Second, bring the global South to the front row. Half of humanity was missing from the leaders' photo session at the first summit. That must not happen again. As a leader of the Global South, India must endeavour to have as wide a participation as possible. India should also push for an AI for Billions Fund, seeded by development banks and Gulf investors, which could pay for cloud credits, fellowships and local language datasets. India could launch a multilingual model challenge for say 50 underserved languages and award prizes before the closing dinner. The message is simple: talent is everywhere, and not just in California or Beijing. Third, create a common safety check. Since the Bletchley Summit in 2023 (or the AI Safety Summit 2023), experts have urged red teaming and stress tests. Many national AI safety institutes have sprung up. But no shared checklist exists. India could endeavour to broker them into a Global AI Safety Collaborative which can share red team scripts, incident logs and stress tests on any model above an agreed compute line. Our own institute can post an open evaluation kit with code and datasets for bias robustness. Fourth, offer a usable middle road on rules. The United States fears heavy regulation. Europe rolls out its AI Act. China trusts state control. Most nations want something in between. India can voice that balance. It can draft a voluntary frontier AI code of conduct. Base it on the Seoul pledge but add teeth. Publish external red team results within 90 days. Disclose compute once it crosses a line. Provide an accident hotline. Voluntary yet specific. Fifth, avoid fragmentation. Splintered summits serve no one. The U.S. and China eye each other across the frontier AI race. New Delhi cannot erase that tension but can blunt it. The summit agenda must be broad, inclusive, and focused on global good. The path for India India cannot craft a global AI authority in one week and should not try. It can stitch together what exists and make a serious push to share AI capacity with the global majority. If India can turn participation into progress, it will not just be hosting a summit. It will reframe its identity on a cutting edge issue.

'Yeah, I'm sleeping on the factory floor, not because I think that's a fun place to sleep. You know. Terrible,' Musk told King. 'I don't believe like people should be experiencing hardship while the CEO is, like, off on vacation.' Elon Musk said he lived in factory floor for three full years In a November 2022 interview with Baron Capital CEO Ron Baron, Elon Musk said he was 'living in the factory in Fremont, and the one in Nevada, for three years straight. That was my primary residence. 'I slept on the couch at one point, in a tent on the roof, and for a while there, I was just sleeping under my desk, which is out in the open in the factory,' he said. 'It was damn uncomfortable sleeping on that floor and always, when I woke up, I'd smell like metal dust.' Elon Musk said his DOGE team works 120 hours a week In February this year, Elon Musk said he and his team at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) are working 120 hours a week. 'Our bureaucratic opponents optimistically work 40 hours a week,' he added. 'That is why they are losing so fast.' AI Masterclass for Students. Upskill Young Ones Today!– Join Now
