India has developed a comprehensive domestic framework to evaluate the use of artificial intelligence in its defence sector. The government's initiative aims to establish robust safety and oversight mechanisms as AI becomes increasingly integrated into military operations across the nation.

This framework represents a proactive approach to managing emerging technologies in critical strategic domains. By creating structured evaluation processes, India seeks to balance rapid technological advancement with responsible deployment and accountability in all defence-related AI applications. The policy underscores India's intent to lead in establishing transparent guidelines for AI integration in armed forces while maintaining national security interests.
