KEY TAKEAWAYS:
A strong economy is the foundation of national security and global influence. India must focus on industrial growth, technological advancements, and skill development to empower its people and strengthen its strategic autonomy.
Keynote speaker
Aatmanirbhar Bharat (Self-Reliance) is critical for India’s security and global standing. Achieving this vision requires building a strong domestic manufacturing sector, fostering innovation, and investing in skilled labour to reduce dependence on imports and become a leader in advanced technologies.
India needs to target sustained high economic growth of 7.5% or more to create jobs, improve infrastructure, and generate resources for critical sectors like education, healthcare, and defence.
Distinguished Audience
To secure its future as a global leader, India must adopt a balanced approach that strengthens domestic capabilities while leveraging strategic global partnerships. By aligning its trade, industrial, and defence policies with the vision of Aatmanirbhar-Bharat, India can ensure sustainable growth and long-term security.
