Union IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw on Tuesday apologized for long queues, heavy crowds and logistical problems that marred the opening day (Feb. 16) of the India AI Impact Summit at Bharat Mandapam. He said a war room and dedicated complaint system have been set up to resolve issues across the five-day summit (Feb. 16–20), while opposition parties accused organisers of mismanagement.
