NEW DELHI: Minister of state for Electronics and IT, Rajeev Chandrasekhar has asserted that India will be a global player in all matters of technology.
He said the Government’s focus has been to push India from being an outlier to become a serious, competitive participant in global value chains.
Addressing the 15th AGM of Public Affairs Forum of India here on May 11, he spoke about how a number of global players like Apple, Samsung, and Cisco are shifting to India.
He exuded confidence that India will be among the top three economies by 2026-27.
Sharing his thoughts on India’s Techade journey, the Minister said India’s Techade is changing the narrative of India being an IT/ITEs hub. It has broadened its base to include the internet and consumer tech and will soon cover AI, Semicon design and production, and quantum computing.
Referring to semiconductor space, Chandrasekhar said the Government has created opportunities in manufacturing and design sectors in just 14 months.
