NEW DELHI, September 25 — The Government of India's flagship industrial development framework, "Make in India", completed 12 years of implementation on Friday, marking widespread expansion across 27 key economic sectors.

Launched in 2014, the initiative has transformed India into a global manufacturing powerhouse in electronics, mobile phone assembly, pharmaceuticals, renewable energy hardware, and defence hardware. Supported by Production Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes across 14 vital industries, foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows and domestic value addition have registered consistent growth over the decade.

Officials from the Ministry of Commerce and Industry stated that reducing regulatory burdens, simplifying business compliance, and modernizing logistics through PM GatiShakti have bolstered domestic industrial output and merchandise exports.

National manufacturing initiatives and economic growth schemes are foundational topics in Indian economy sections. Candidates should remember that the 'Make in India' initiative was formally inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on September 25, 2014.

नई दिल्ली, 25 सितंबर — भारत सरकार की प्रमुख विनिर्माण और औद्योगीकरण पहल 'मेक इन इंडिया' ने 25 सितंबर 2026 को अपनी 12वीं वर्षगांठ पूरी की। 2014 में शुरू की गई यह पहल अब 27 प्रमुख औद्योगिक क्षेत्रों में विनिर्माण पारिस्थितिकी तंत्र को संचालित कर रही है।

वाणिज्य और उद्योग मंत्रालय ने रिपोर्ट किया कि पिछले 12 वर्षों में भारत में प्रत्यक्ष विदेशी निवेश (FDI) अंतर्वाह में अभूतपूर्व वृद्धि दर्ज की गई है, और मोबाइल फोन, इलेक्ट्रॉनिक्स, फार्मास्यूटिकल्स, रक्षा उपकरण और ऑटोमोबाइल जैसे क्षेत्रों में भारत वैश्विक विनिर्माण केंद्र के रूप में उभरा है। उत्पादन से जुड़ी प्रोत्साहन (PLI) योजनाओं ने घरेलू मूल्य संवर्धन को नई गति प्रदान की है।

नीति आयोग और उद्योग संघों ने उल्लेख किया कि स्थानीय आपूर्ति श्रृंखलाओं को मजबूत करने और रसद लागत को कम करने से औद्योगिक निर्यात को निरंतर समर्थन मिल रहा है।

राष्ट्रीय विनिर्माण नीतियां और आर्थिक सुधार भारतीय अर्थव्यवस्था पाठ्यक्रम के मूल विषय हैं। उम्मीदवारों को ध्यान देना चाहिए कि 'मेक इन इंडिया' कार्यक्रम 25 सितंबर 2014 को प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी द्वारा शुरू किया गया था।
