The government of India is now planning to develop and create a new operating system for the mobile platform which works in the same way as Google or the iOS ecosystem. The details were confirmed by the Union Minister of State for Electronics and IT Rajeev Chandrasekhar. As per them, the current hardware ecosystem is driven by dominant Android and iOS operating systems and there is no alternative for both of these.

It is why the government of India is looking at new start-ups and academic ecosystems for the development of the indigenous operating system (OS). As per the Union Minister, if there are any real capabilities in developing in this area, then it would be a great opportunity for an Indian brand to grow. The team is currently working on creating new policies for the operating system, which could define the goals and ambition for the same.
