Bihar has no state-specific AI education policy beyond the national CBSE mandate. Fewer than 25 percent of schools have computers or internet access, creating a fundamental infrastructure barrier to AI literacy delivery. The state has not announced dedicated AI training programmes, AI labs, or workforce upskilling initiatives. Bihar’s AI education implementation depends entirely on the national CBSE rollout, which faces delivery challenges in states with limited digital infrastructure.
