Minister Shri Arjun Ram Meghwal said AI cannot replace humans at the book launch in New Delhi on April 30, 2026.
The book by Rodney D. Ryder and Nikhil Naren covers the IT Act, data protection, surveillance and emerging tech, guiding professionals and students.
Guests Attorney General R. Venkataramani, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta and former G20 Sherpa Amitabh Kant stressed India's digital progress and AI regulation need.
India has 1.5 billion digital IDs and opened 550 million bank accounts between 2015‑2017, averaging one new account per second, per Amitabh Kant.
