A major new research paper, titled “A Strategic Framework for Implementing Artificial Intelligence in Public Governance: A 10-Step Roadmap for Developing Nations,” has been released. Authored by Rakesh Raman of RMN News Service and RMN Foundation, the paper provides a crucial blueprint for governments in the developing world to transition toward intelligent, efficient public service delivery.
The paper, published in October 2025, argues that for nations like India, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is not merely an optional technological upgrade but a strategic imperative to overcome systemic governance challenges. Traditional bureaucratic systems are characterized by manual processes, entrenched data silos, and a lack of real-time insights, rendering them ill-equipped to manage the dual challenge of serving a massive and growing population while improving essential services like healthcare, education, and infrastructure.
The framework aims to move governments beyond the reactive, “one-size-fits-all” service model toward systems that are proactive, personalized, and predictive. While current governmental use of AI is confined largely to specialized Artificial Narrow Intelligence (ANI) applications—such as logistics optimization and chatbots—widespread success is hindered by poor data quality, scalability issues, and a lack of interoperability between departments.
The 10-Step Framework for Responsible AI
The paper’s core contribution is a comprehensive 10-step strategic framework designed to directly counter these systemic limitations. The framework provides a phased approach that integrates technical infrastructure, human capital development, ethical oversight, and a commitment to equity.

The framework emphasizes that the strategic deployment of ANI today must simultaneously prepare the nation for a future that may include the complexities of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). The principles laid out are guided by internationally recognized ethical standards, including the UNESCO Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence, the OECD AI Principles, and the emerging EU AI Act.
