## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF PANCHAYATI RAJ

## (SHRI RAJIV RANJAN SINGH ALIAS LALAN SINGH)

(a) The Ministry of Panchayati Raj launched SabhaSaar , an AI-enabled voice-to-text meeting-summarisation tool, on 14th August 2025. The tool has been made available to all States/UTs, and Gram Panchayats are progressively adopting it for routine Gram Sabha and Panchayat meetings. As part of the pilot introduction, all 1,194 Gram Panchayats of Tripura were encouraged to use the tool for the Special Gram Sabhas on 15 August 2025, and 1,047 Gram Panchayats successfully used SabhaSaar on that day. A total of 12,667 Gram Panchayats used SabhaSaar on 15 August 2025, which increased to 77,198 Gram Panchayats during the Gram Sabha held on 2 October 2025. As on 03.12.2025, a total of 92,376 Gram

Panchayats have used the SabhaSaar tool for automated meeting summarisation across States/UTs. For the State of Madhya Pradesh, a total of 313 Panchayats across the State have adopted the portal. Zila Panchayat wise details are placed at Annexure .

(b) & (c) The Ministry has undertaken assessments of the accuracy, reliability and linguistic performance of the SabhaSaar tool across the currently supported languages. These assessments include evaluation of transcription quality, summarisation accuracy and responsiveness of the tool under varied field conditions. The Ministry is also in consultation with State users to obtain feedback on the performance of the application. Improvements in the tool are being carried out based on the feedback received from users. The assessments indicate that the AI model performs effectively across the supported languages, with some variations arising from accent, ambient noise and quality of audio input. Improvements in language accuracy, summarisation quality and noise-handling capability are being incorporated regularly. As on 3 Dec 2025, no Panchayats from DewasShajapur have adopted the portal.

(d) & (e) SabhaSaar is integrated with BHASHINI, the National Language Translation Mission of MeitY, and currently supports 22 scheduled languages for text-to-text translation and 13 languages among these scheduled languages(English, Hindi, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Gujarati, Bengali, Malayalam, Odia, Urdu, Punjabi, and Sanskrit) for voice-to-text transcription. Any addition of languages is dependent on their availability on the BHASHINI platform.
