Maharashtra Govt Partners with Microsoft to Launch MahaCrimeOS AI

Maharashtra Govt Partners with Microsoft to Launch MahaCrimeOS AI

The Government of Maharashtra has taken a major leap in AI-driven policing by partnering with Microsoft to launch MahaCrimeOS AI, an advanced platform designed to modernise and accelerate cybercrime investigations across the state. The platform was unveiled by Satya Nadella, Microsoft Chairman and CEO, during the Microsoft AI Tour in Mumbai.

Developed by CyberEye, in collaboration with MARVEL (Maharashtra’s Special Purpose Vehicle for AI governance) and the Microsoft India Development Center (IDC), MahaCrimeOS AI represents one of the most ambitious AI transformations in Indian law enforcement.

What is MahaCrimeOS AI?

MahaCrimeOS AI is an AI- and Azure-powered digital investigation platform built to streamline, standardise and speed up cybercrime case management.

Currently deployed in 23 police stations in Nagpur, it has already demonstrated impressive results:

Performance Highlights

  • 80% reduction in investigation turnaround times
  • Nearly 100% digital registration of investigations
  • Standardised AI-powered workflows across stations

These early achievements highlight the platform’s potential for state-wide impact.

Statewide Rollout Across 1,100 Police Stations

According to Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, the government plans to expand MahaCrimeOS AI to all 1,100 police stations in the state.

This will empower every police station to:

  • Digitally register cybercrimes
  • Conduct investigations with AI-powered tools
  • Follow standardised workflows
  • Enhance speed, accuracy and case transparency

Fadnavis stated that AI will help “fundamentally transform the way we govern,” marking a major evolution in public service delivery.

Key Features of MahaCrimeOS AI

1. Instant Case Creation

Officers can rapidly generate case files with automated data entry.

2. Multilingual Data Extraction

The AI system extracts information from diverse sources in multiple languages.

3. Contextual Legal Assistance

Built-in access to India’s criminal laws via AI-powered Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) provides officers with accurate, context-aware legal support.

4. Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) Integration

Helps investigators link digital evidence, identify patterns and track threat actors.

5. AI-Powered Evidence Analysis

Reduces manual effort and speeds up the investigation cycle.

6. Secure & Compliant Deployment

Microsoft IDC ensured the platform meets strict security and data governance standards.

Collaboration Behind the Innovation

The platform is the result of a multi-layered ecosystem:

  • CyberEye developed the core AI investigation tools
  • MARVEL provided the governance and integration framework
  • Microsoft India Development Center customised the system for policing realities
  • Maharashtra Police supplied field insights and testing environments

This collaboration ensures the solution is not just technologically advanced, but practical and real-world ready.

Why MahaCrimeOS AI Matters

This AI-led transformation will:

  • Strengthen cybercrime response across Maharashtra
  • Reduce investigation delays
  • Improve citizen trust and service delivery
  • Modernise police operations with cutting-edge technology
  • Set a national benchmark for AI in governance

As cyber threats grow more complex, tools like MahaCrimeOS AI provide governments with the agility needed to respond effectively.
