Empowering Families and Students with Innovation and Security
New Delhi, India – Reliance Jio made significant announcements at the India Mobile Congress 2025 (IMC 2025) on Wednesday, introducing a new range of JioBharat Phones designed with advanced safety features and launching the “Jio AI Classroom,” a free foundation course in artificial intelligence. These initiatives underscore Jio’s commitment to enhancing connectivity, security, and education across India.
The new JioBharat Phones, starting at an accessible price of Rs. 799, are touted as ideal for elderly users, children, and women. These handsets prioritize safety with features like precise location monitoring, a robust usage manager, and an impressive battery life of up to seven days. The usage manager is a standout feature, allowing users or guardians to control who can contact them, effectively blocking and restricting unknown callers to minimize unwanted distractions. Parents can equip their children with these phones to ensure connectivity and safety through smart location and call management, all while mitigating the influence of social media. Caretakers can also leverage these features to monitor the health and location of their elderly parents.
JioBharat Safety-First Phones are readily available for purchase across India through Jio Stores, JioMart, Amazon, Swiggy Instamart, and other offline retailers, making them easily accessible to a wide audience
Beyond hardware, Jio is making strides in education with the launch of the Jio AI Classroom. This free, beginner-level foundation course, powered by JioPC in collaboration with Jio Institute, aims to demystify artificial intelligence for students nationwide. Accessible via PCs, laptops, and smart TVs through JioPC on Jio set-top boxes, the course can be enrolled in directly from the company’s website.
The curriculum is designed to provide hands-on exposure to various AI tools for productivity, learning, and creativity. Students will delve into AI fundamentals, explore real-life applications, and learn to summarize and organize information efficiently. The course features video lecture-based modules, practical assignments, and culminates in an “AI-powered” capstone project. JioPC users will enjoy exclusive benefits, including bonus access to advanced AI tools, an extended learning roadmap, and a certificate from Jio Institute, while others will receive a completion badge. The four-week program covers AI basics and prompt engineering, AI for learning and creativity, AI for building and communication, and concludes with the capstone project.
