Question

Consider the following statements with respect to the AI Impact Summit, 2026 held in New Delhi:

1The Summit's intellectual framework was based on three foundational Sutras: People, Planning, and Progress.
2The Preamble of the Summit stresses on Democratising AI Resources, which acknowledges the Charter for Democratic Diffusion of AI as a binding framework to support locally relevant innovation and strengthen resilient AI ecosystems while respecting national laws.
3The New Delhi Declaration on AI Impact was structured around seven Chakras (Pillars), which included Access for Social Empowerment, AI for Science, and Secure and Trusted AI .

Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Options

a

1, 2 and 3

b

1 and 2 only

c

2 and 3 only

d

3 only

Answer

Explanation

Only statement 3 is correct. The New Delhi Declaration on AI Impact adopted during the 2026 summit outlines an action plan structured around Seven Chakras (Pillars), including Access for Social Empowerment, AI for Science, and Secure and Trusted AI. Statement 1 is incorrect because the summit's core slogan uses a different set of foundational principles rather than the specific triad of 'People, Planning, and Progress'. Statement 2 is incorrect because the declaration frames its goals as a voluntary, non-binding cooperative guidance document rather than an internationally binding legal framework.

The 2026 New Delhi Declaration on AI Impact structures its recommendations around seven functional pillars, operating as a voluntary cooperative framework rather than a binding treaty.
