AI Impact Summit 2026: Ayush Pavilion Attracts Visitors With It's Citizen-Centric Innovations

The Ayush Pavilion set up by the Ayush Ministry at the ongoing AI Impact Summit-2026 at the Bharat Mandapam is drawing visitors with a unique display of citizen-centric AI innovations focused on holistic health and wellbeing, officials said on Tuesday. The pavilion is presenting a comprehensive architecture of the Ayush Grid – India's flagship digital public health platform for traditional medicine, they said. A key component of this ecosystem is the 'My Ayush Integrated Services Portal' (MAISP), the master digital portal developed under the Ayush Grid.

Envisioned as the backbone of the digital Ayush ecosystem, MAISP operationalises the vision of ‘One Portal: Complete Ayush Ecosystem' by integrating healthcare services, capacity building, medicinal plants research and development, and Ayush drug administration, education and outreach on a unified platform.

The portal, launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the second WHO Global Summit on Traditional Medicine held in Delhi last December, streamlines access to authentic traditional medicine services for citizens and institutions alike.

Reaffirming the ministry's commitment to aligning traditional knowledge systems with emerging technologies, senior leadership emphasised the transformative potential of responsible AI in public health, the officials said.

Ayush Minister Prataprao Jadhav said, “Guided by the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Ministry of Ayush is committed to ensuring that artificial intelligence becomes an instrument of 'Sarvajana Hitaya, Sarvajana Sukhaya – welfare and happiness for all.

“Through the Ayush Grid and AI-enabled innovations, we are building a digital public infrastructure that strengthens transparency, expands access, and integrates India's timeless health knowledge with future-ready technologies for inclusive and affordable healthcare.” Highlighting the institutional and governance perspective of this digital transformation, Vaidya Rajesh Kotecha, Secretary, Ministry of Ayush, said, “The Ayush Grid architecture and the My Ayush portal represent a paradigm shift in how traditional medicine is delivered, documented and digitally integrated.

“By embedding AI tools into research, education, service delivery and regulatory systems, we are ensuring standardisation, interoperability and evidence-based advancement of Ayush systems in alignment with global practices.” Explaining the practical application of AI across citizen services, Naman Goel, OSD, Ayush Grid, said, “We are demonstrating AI-powered chatbots and other flagship initiatives at the Ayush Pavilion, including the Yoga Posture AI, a computer-based solution that enables users to check, correct and accurately perform asanas, thereby enhancing precision, safety and accessibility in yoga practice.” The summit with the theme ‘Sarvajana Hitaya, Sarvajana Sukhaya' – welfare for all, happiness for all – was announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the AI Action Summit in Paris last February.
