Rajat Khare, founder of Boundary Holding, says India must build its own large language model and stop the ongoing brain drain to become a power. He notes India has strong engineers, data scientists, and IT talent, yet nearly 15% of the workforce works abroad. Many leave for better research facilities, salaries, and exposure, weakening India’s innovation ecosystem. Khare urges stronger policies, higher AI research funding, better academia-industry collaboration, and support for deep-tech startups. With growing digital infrastructure, multilingual AI can give India a major advantage and wider social impact.
