Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the AI Impact Summit at Bharat Mantapam in New Delhi, positioning India as a global engine for artificial intelligence innovation. Running from February 16 to 20, 2026, the summit features global leaders and tech icons like Bill Gates, focusing on healthcare, robotics, and ethical AI frameworks. Simultaneously, Congress veteran Mani Shankar Aiyar has triggered political controversy by criticizing party leadership, specifically questioning the elevation of K.C. Venugopal. During his Kerala visit, Aiyar praised Chief Ministers Pinarayi Vijayan and M.K. Stalin, while tensions rise within the DMK-Congress alliance over power-sharing demands in Tamil Nadu. Some Congress members are reportedly considering a partnership with TVK chief Vijay. In historical developments, researchers discovered ancient Tamil Brahmi inscriptions in Egyptian royal tombs, providing evidence of the Tamil civilization’s historic global trade reach. These events highlight India’s current technological ambitions, ongoing internal political shifts within the opposition, and new archaeological findings regarding the nation’s maritime history and international influence.
