Gautam Adani on Indology Mission: Taking a big step towards giving global recognition to the Indian knowledge tradition, Gautam Adani has announced to give Rs 100 crore for the development of ‘India Knowledge Graph’. This announcement was made at the first Adani Global Indology Conclave held in Ahmedabad with the aim of preserving, organizing and modernizing Indian civilizational knowledge. This program was jointly organized by Adani Group and Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) of the Ministry of Education.
Big announcement on Indology Mission
Adani said that this contribution is a payment of debt towards the great civilization of India. The India Knowledge Graph aims to compile India’s historical contributions to astronomy, mathematics, philosophy, governance, linguistics and other fields into a modern digital framework that will be optimized for artificial intelligence.
Scholars, technical experts, policy-makers and spiritual leaders attending the conference described this initiative as an important step towards making India a ‘Vishwa Guru’. Swami Avimukteshwaranand Saraswati said that Gautam Adani’s initiative takes forward his dream that India should play its role as a global teacher.
Big step towards becoming a world leader
Adani also warned that if a civilization does not protect its cultural structures in the digital age, then future generations may be influenced by the cold rationality of the algorithms of machines and move away from their cultural and historical identity.
Under this mission, Adani Group and IKS have decided to support 14 PhD researchers from IITs, IIMs and leading universities for five years. The areas of study of these researchers include Panini grammar, computational linguistics, ancient astronomy, indigenous health systems, sustainability principles embedded in traditional engineering, political thought and classical literature.
The aim is to make India’s civilizational knowledge wealth more accessible, reliable and future-oriented through modern research methods—such as data science, systems thinking and multimodal archiving.
