India is a developing nation and so far it had been dependent on other countries for a lot of things, starting from food, clothing, vehicles, technologies, and also defence equipment. Whenever India faces demand in any of the above criteria it has two options. Either to develop it indigenously or to import it from foreign countries at a certain price. This scenario has two outcomes. The primary being a solution for a sustainable and long term growth where India is self-reliant on itself. And the second is obviously the easy way out of dealing with the problem now while ignoring long term growth.
During the past few years, India has taken this approach of self-reliance. The most appropiate being the "Make in India" initiative, where the focus is on the production being done in India. Here, foreign companies who are willing to enter Indian market are asked to manufacture in India and then sell their products. This is helping India in so many ways. The first being creating job opportunities. Secondly, it is helping Indians to get accustomed with foreign state of the art technologies. Big tech giants such as Iphone, Redmi, Samsung, Google have set up their offices and manufacturing hubs in India. Not only tech giants but also defense equipment are also built by purchasing the technology from foreign and focusing on the built in India. This marks the milestone for a sustainable growth for India. ISRO's commercial unit New India Space Limited has also made several tie-ups with foreign countries such as Singapore and Indonesia to lauch their satellites. Similar in fields of medicine where India is heading towards the title of 'medicine supplier of the world' specially after manufacturing billions of COVID-19 vaccines and then exporting them all around the world.
All these events point towards the fact that India is on it's path towards growth, and it will soon become a globally recognised manufacturing hub for the world exporting items and catering to need of others which will help to build a stronger and better India for our next generations.
