Building upon the National AI Strategy, these principles provide a comprehensive framework for ethical and responsible AI development and deployment in India. The document establishes seven core principles: safety and reliability, equality, inclusivity and non-discrimination, privacy and security, transparency, accountability, and protection and reinforcement of positive human values. Under privacy and security, it mandates that AI systems must respect data privacy throughout the data lifecycle, implement privacy-by-design approaches, ensure data minimization, and maintain robust security measures.

These principles serve as guidelines for both public and private sector entities developing or deploying AI solutions.
