Several countries are expected to join India Stack in February to utilise the open source code and architecture of platforms such as Aadhaar and Unified Payments Interface (UPI) and develop similar services for their citizens, said a minister on Tuesday.

Rajeev Chandrasekhar, the minister of state (MoS) for Electronics and Information Technology, said countries may start work during the World Government Summit, 2023 in Abu Dhabi from February 13 to 15.
