New Delhi: Personnel of Delhi Police and paramilitary forces deployed on duty during the Assembly elections in the national capital will have the aid of two Artificial Intelligence-enabled chatbots while dealing with poll-related incidents.

'Chunav Mitra' and 'Cyber Sarthi', the two AI chatbots available in English and Hindi, were launched by Delhi Police to assist the personnel for effective management of the February 5 elections. The two chatbots are expected to help the personnel in the smooth and efficient execution of election-related duties, officials said.

The chatbot 'Chunav Mitra' is designed to quickly provide key instructions and guidelines, rules and directives issued by the Election Commission and Delhi. Designed as a vital tool for field officers, it provides immediate reference on a real time basis.
