Maharashtra CM announces Shiksha Saathi — a first-of-its-kind AI-powered tool for Anganwadi Workers!

At the India AI Impact Summit 2026, CM Devendra Fadnavis along with Mr. Chris Lehane (Head of Public Policy, OpenAI) and Mr. Azeez Gupta (Co-founder, Rocket Learning) announced Shiksha Saathi — a first-of-its-kind AI-powered assistant to strengthen the professional and pedagogical capacities of Anganwadi Workers across Maharashtra.

Maharashtra is the first state in India to partner with OpenAI and Rocket Learning to implement an AI-enabled tool for Anganwadi Workers at scale.

Developed by Rocket Learning in collaboration with OpenAI, Shiksha Saathi is a multilingual WhatsApp-based assistant providing guidance on:
•⁠ ⁠Developmental milestones & early learning
•⁠ ⁠National curriculum-aligned practices
•⁠ ⁠Activities rooted in Aadharshila standards
•⁠ ⁠Everyday strategies to foster positive learning environments

This initiative will support lakhs of Anganwadi workers in the state with real-time, accessible guidance — strengthening foundational learning outcomes for young children across Maharashtra.

The Government of Maharashtra is committed to leveraging technology to enhance service delivery, empower frontline workers, and advance Early Childhood Education at scale.

Minister Adv. Ashish Shelar and other dignitaries were present.
