Concept of "Three-D Power"

  • Prime Minister Modi emphasized on the concept of "Three-D Power" to promote semiconductor manufacturing. It includes three important elements:
  • Stable policies: Stability in policymaking and a long-term vision.
  • Strong manufacturing base: Development of manufacturing facilities and technology.
  • Technology adoption by aspirational markets: Coordination of market needs and technological innovation.
India's goal of self-reliance

Prime Minister Modi informed about the steps taken towards India's self-reliance. He said that more than Rs 1.5 lakh crore has already been invested in the semiconductor sector, and many important projects are in the pipeline. Through this investment, India is not only enhancing its indigenous capabilities but also ensuring an important place in the global semiconductor supply chain.

Future direction

According to Prime Minister Modi, "Today's India inspires confidence in the world. When difficulties arise, you can rely on India." This statement reflects a significant step towards India's self-reliance and global leadership in the technological sector. India's investments and progress in the semiconductor sector will strengthen the country's position in global competition and provide significant economic and technological advantages in the years to come.

Thus, India's semiconductor sector is building a strong foundation to meet future technological requirements, and PM Modi's announcement is a major step in this direction. This effort will lead towards making India a major player on the global technological map.
