Sri Lanka is set to establish its first AI-powered national information platform, with the National Centre for Information and Global Affairs (NCINGA) tasked with developing the system for the Government Information Centre (GIC).
The platform will leverage artificial intelligence technologies to streamline access to national information and improve public service delivery across government departments. The project represents part of broader efforts to digitalize government operations and enhance citizen engagement with state institutions.
The development of this centralized information hub is expected to consolidate data from multiple government agencies, making it more accessible to both the public and officials. By incorporating AI capabilities, the platform aims to provide faster information retrieval, improved search functionality, and better data organization.
The initiative reflects the government's commitment to adopting modern technologies in public administration. As Sri Lanka continues its digital transformation agenda, such platforms are viewed as essential infrastructure for improving transparency and administrative efficiency across the public sector.
