Hon’ble Prime Minister of India Dr. Manmohan Singh has exhorted industry to break new ground and create the ecosystems to enable India to be a major producer of hardware as the government is committed to doing everything possible to support such efforts.
He expressed concern on the thinning down of our domestic manufacturing capabilities in telecom in particular and in electronics in general over the past two decades. He said, “Need is to strengthen our domestic manufacturing capabilities across the entire value chain in telecom and electronics.
The new Telecom and Electronics Policies lay down the regime for enabling this to happen. Now it is for the captains of our industry, particularly in the private sector that they have to seize this unique initiative.” The Prime Minister was speaking at the ‘India Telecom 2012’ held in New Delhi during December 13-15, 2012.
