Abstract
Communication and digital literacy are essential to India's goal of becoming a "Viksit Bharat" (Developed India) by the year 2047. This goal aims to equip citizens with the skills necessary for the digital economy, bridge the gap between urban and rural areas, improve access to e-governance (such as UPI and DigiLocker), encourage innovation (including artificial intelligence and information technology), and ensure inclusive growth through initiatives such as PMGDISHA and Digital India and other initiatives. Literacies are non-negotiable for the advancement of a nation since they are the driving force behind economic stability, the primary driver of educational improvement, and the facilitator of participation in a technologically advanced society. In the 21st century, artificial intelligence (AI) is a powerful instrument that can improve many aspects of life. This is part of India's Viksit Bharat 2047 ambition to improve the country by 2047, its centenary. Viksit Bharat 2047 (Developed India 2047) requires the integration of emerging technologies, particularly AI, across several sectors, including higher education. Beyond higher education, artificial intelligence affects economic growth and technology. This transformational vision can only be fulfilled when young minds actively engage with AI. AI literacy in higher education empowers students to explore, create, and innovate. As students learn AI, they may solve real-world problems, conduct research, and change the future. The PRISMA methodology was used to discover relevant studies from Google Scholar, Scopus, and IEEE in this comprehensive review. After strict inclusion and exclusion criteria, 130 studies were reviewed and 17 were chosen for in-depth analysis. AI's impact on higher education is better understood, highlighting benefits and concerns in the context of Vision Viksit Bharat 2047, India's long-term development goals. Digitalization, skill development, and ethics are difficulties, while individualized learning, adaptive assessment, and AI-driven research are opportunities. AI-driven education supports Viksit Bharat 2047 by creating a technologically skilled workforce for India's development. Educational institutions, government, and industry must collaborate to teach future generations AI skills that support Viksit Bharat 2047.
