What are your comments on ‘Make in India’ initiative by India Govt?
As we all know that India is one amongst the developing and fastest growing country. The decision taken by BJP-led NDA government to introduce ‘Make in India’ campaign is a great initiative which is nothing less than but a giant leap to transform India into a global manufacturing hub for key sectors. Moreover it’s going to benefit youth who form 65 percent of our population. Promoting ‘Make in India’ means a move that is not only expected to spur economic activity but also create jobs.
Most interesting point is its facilitating investment, foster innovation and also enhancing skill development. It feels great that companies across the globe are making investment and setting up factories for using India’s highly talented and skilled manpower to create world class zero defect products. The massive mission to manufacture in India and sell the products worldwide is becoming a reality. Soon India will create a huge market for manufacturing.
