Budget Accelerates AI-Powered Smart Infrastructure Across Transport and Cities Urban mobility & safety

Commenting on the Union Budget 2026, Mr. Bhardwaj Naik, Chief Revenue Officer, Videonetics, said:

“The Union Budget’s strong emphasis on infrastructure development across cities, transport corridors, and logistics networks is a clear signal that India is accelerating toward an AI-driven future for Viksit Bharat. As smart and connected transport infrastructure, spanning new freight corridors, waterways, and multimodal logistics hubs takes shape, AI-powered video intelligence will play a critical role in enabling safer operations, improved efficiency, and real-time visibility. 

This Budget’s emphasis on AI, digital systems, and technology-led governance reinforces our belief that True AI-Powered Video Surveillance & Computing Platforms will be central to smart urban infrastructure, modern traffic management, perimeter security, and large-scale infrastructure monitoring. This presents a major opportunity for AI-powered video computing platforms to turn real-time and historical video data into predictive traffic insights, operational efficiency, and improved public safety. The time for incremental change has passed, strategic adoption of AI is essential to building a smarter, more resilient, and future-ready Viksit Bharat.”
