A made-in-Bharat OS
In 2007, the CDAC, short for Centre for Development of Advanced Computing – a Government of India (GOI) body under the Ministry of Electronics and IT came up with Bharat Operating System Solutions or BOSS.

Although not the first Made in India operating system (OS), BharOS, developed by an IIT Madras-incubated firm has created quite a furore. The OS was successfully tested earlier this week by Union ministers Dharmendra Pradhan and Ashwini Vaishnaw. The former called it a step towards PM Narendra Modi’s vision of a “strong, indigenous, and self-reliant digital infrastructure” in the country.

Indigenous it is, but it is crucial to note here that the unveiling comes at a time when tech giant Google recently suffered a legal setback regarding its Android operating system.
