Take anything from India with a grain of salt. This kind announcement happened in the past but ultimately failed to gain any steam.
UPDATE:
Can't even stop laughing LMAO 🤣🤣 🤣

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
Rules
- Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.

India feels like the country equivalent of Elon Musk when it comes to announcements. They always announce some incredible goal (man on Mars, Superpower 2020, whatever) lap up all the good vibes of that announcement, and then drop the ball on implementation. Then they quietly shift the deadline to 5 years later and make a new announcement.
This is such a no-brainer. Every government in the world should be doing this.
The more that do and contribute the more of a no brainier it will be too!
Fascinating news. On the statcounter site I also read that India's Linux use stats for July, 2023 were at 14.15%. Incredible!
Schools use Ubuntu LTS based distro in my state too
Tamilnadu government has also shifted to linux afaik correct me if i'm wrong
Kite Gnu/linux 20.04

WTF is this link? Lol
You could replace that domain with youtube.com . These are typically custom self-hosted frontends for youtube.
Most have the google tracking and analytics removed while others do a bunch more.
Invidious. Privacy friendly decentralised youtube tunnel
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=Lr-9aCMUXzI&
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
