Initiatives begnning to work
More beyond its own need, India now goes to be having capability of exporting the products linked to space and defence sector, the target of which is set to be 5 billion dollar by the end of 2025. Obviously the effect of ‘Make-in-India’ has begun to manifest far and wide. More than 24000 are such MSMEs which fulfil the requirement of components needed in defence products. In next 5 years the target is set for achieving the self-reliance in 5000 more products, benefit of which will again be availed by the MSMEs only.

Country makes LED Bulbs and air conditions and solar photovoltaic also. But small components required for them are largely imported, particularly from China and from other countries also.

As for the country, it is in the market of Canada that the maximum growth of more than 30% is recorded in terms of Indian imported drugs. And to America, more than 12.6% Indian drugs are exported.
Now soon country will be having 5000 plants to be producing bio-CNG from the crop-residue[to be locally called ‘parali’]. This Nitin Gadkari announced on the occasion of launching country’s first bio-CNG tractor manufactured by two start-up companies. Parali will now no longer be the menace, but a source of income for the farmers. Moreover the cost of running the bio-CNG tractor for the farmer will get reduced by half as also. Such steps are enough to bolster the notion that the present government is as much crony of farmers and common man, as it is alleged to be of handful big business houses.
