These days New Delhi is getting ready for a big international event. The 28th Speakers Conference of Commonwealth countries is going to start in the capital from January 15. This important conference will be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Representatives from 42 countries of the world will participate in it, which includes speakers from 21 countries and representatives of 15 parliamentary institutions. Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla said that this conference is a big platform to increase dialogue between parliaments and strengthen democratic institutions. According to him, when there is dialogue between institutions, new ideas emerge and avenues of improvement open up.
A big event is happening in India after 16 years
This conference is being held in India after 16 years. Earlier this event was organized in 1971, 1986 and 2010. This time India has also got its presidency, which is being considered a big achievement for the country. There will be a meeting of the Executive Council on January 16, in which representatives of 15 countries will participate. However, this time Pakistan and Bangladesh have not been invited to the conference. Many big countries like Canada and Britain are participating in it.
Special focus on Artificial Intelligence and Innovation
The theme of this conference has also been kept quite modern. There will be a special discussion on the use of Artificial Intelligence i.e. AI in Parliament. Om Birla said that with the help of AI, MPs will be able to quickly get letters and documents in 22 languages. With this, the work of Parliament will be faster and easier. The special thing is that the entire conference will be digital i.e. paper will not be used and everything will be done online. This is also a good step from environmental point of view.
Steps to increase participation of public and youth
An important objective of the conference is to increase the participation of common people in the Parliament. For this, digital platforms will be used more, so that people can easily convey their views to the Parliament. Overall, this conference is a big opportunity for India, where it will be able to show its strong democracy and modern thinking to the world. This is being considered an important step towards making Parliament more transparent and effective through AI and digital technology.
