In the article published in Digital Learning, Dr Abhijit Dasgupta (Assistant Professor and Director - Bachelor of Data Science), SP Jain School of Global Management, discusses the crucial role of data science in India's digital transformation journey within the Digital India initiative.
In the article, he highlights how data science can unlock insights for informed decision-making across various sectors, drive economic growth by enabling the development of new products and services, and boost skills and capabilities through initiatives like the National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) and Skill India.
He concludes by saying, “While data science offers tremendous opportunities, it also presents ethical and regulatory challenges that must be addressed. Data privacy, security, and bias require careful consideration to build trust and ensure responsible data use. The government, industry, and civil society must work together to establish robust frameworks and standards for data governance and ethics. India can foster trust in digital technologies and promote inclusive growth by promoting transparency, accountability, and fairness in data practices.”
