What is Make in India?
Make in India is an initiative launched by the Government of India in September 2014 to encourage companies to manufacture their products within India and promote India as a global manufacturing hub. The primary objective is to boost domestic manufacturing, create jobs, and enhance the economy by attracting foreign investment. The campaign covers 25 sectors, including automobiles, electronics, textiles, and defence manufacturing.
Make in India also aims to improve infrastructure, ease of doing business, and foster innovation, while ensuring that the country becomes self-reliant in various industrial sectors.
