PRIME MINISTER NARENDRA MODI’S MESSAGE TO THE WORLD :
From Automobiles to Agro-products. From Hardware to Software. From Satellites to Submarines. From Televisions to Telecom. From Pharma to Biotech. From Paper to Power Plants. From Roads to Bridges. From Houses to Smart Cities. From Friendship to Partnership. From Profit to Progress. Whatever you want to make: Make in India.
The Prime Minister of India, Mr Narendra Modi, has launched the ‘Make in India’ initiative to place India on the world map as a manufacturing hub and give global recognition to the Indian economy. As a result of this, India’s manufacturing sector could touch US$ 1 trillion by 2025. Several mobile phone, luxury and automobile brands, among others, have set up or are looking to establish their manufacturing bases in the country. The focus of the Make in India programme is on 25 sectors.
Thanks to this initiative and the increase in foreign direct investment, the year 2016 is anticipated to create about 3.5 million job opportunities. A survey conducted by the Indian arm of US-based staffing firm, ManpowerGroup, said, employers predict an increase of almost 42% in the hiring numbers. “Industries like manufacturing and automation will now witness a major boost,” said AG Rao, group MD, ManpowerGroup India, at the “Make in India” week celebration in February 2016. Growth, Productivity, Efficiency, Return on Investment are all terms associated with Automation. To achieve the goals that we, as a country, have set for ourselves, Automation is a necessity. Opportunities are tremendous and growth potential is enormous. What is needed is Knowledge & Skill, which is where we come in.
