Extending a warm traditional welcome, the Chief Minister felicitated the visiting dignitaries with shawls and a replica of Bastar art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the meeting, Shri Sanjay Jain shared details of the Letter of Intent (LOI) signed between the Raipur district administration and Google. As part of this collaboration, a pilot project titled \u2018AI Saksham Shiksha Abhiyan\u2019 has been launched in Raipur district to promote Artificial Intelligence-based innovations in school education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He informed that under the \u2018Saksham Shikshak Abhiyan\u2019, teachers across the state will be trained in modern digital tools and AI-enabled teaching methodologies. The initiative will commence in Raipur in its first phase and will subsequently be expanded to all districts of the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Notably, the programme aims to provide AI certification to over 2 lakh teachers. To facilitate this, Google for Education plans to offer its digital platform free of cost, thereby strengthening teachers with essential technological capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the initial phase, specialised workshops will be organised with the participation of 200 teachers, focusing on hands-on training in Google for Education tools.

He stated that integrating advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence into education is not merely an initiative, but a decisive step towards making the state\u2019s students globally competitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He emphasised that such efforts would not only enhance the quality of teaching methodologies but also equip students with new-age skills, preparing them to face emerging challenges with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Describing the \u2018AI Salsham Shiksha Abhiyan\u2019 as a transformative programme, the Chief Minister noted that it would benefit both teachers and students alike. By empowering educators with AI-based training and digital resources, classroom teaching can be made more effective and outcome-oriented, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reiterating the government\u2019s vision, Shri Sai stated that the goal is to establish Chhattisgarh as a knowledge-driven and technologically empowered state, where every student has access to modern, high-quality, and opportunity-rich education.
