The ‘Make in India’ initiative was launched by the Indian Prime 
Minister Narendra Modi in 2014 to encourage and promote 
manufacturing and production in India as a way to enhance the 
economic prospects of the country.
 
The ‘Make in India’ can only work if manufacturers, retailers, and 
consumers all support this initiative. While for government 
purchasing, national leadership can push it. But at the ground level, 
the bureaucrats need to support it. This support is a social movement. 
 
Similarly, manufacturers who have got used to importing from China 
and labeling their brand names including many big manufacturing 
companies should also support the social movement by 
manufacturing in India. Finally, unless the customer gives preference 
for Indian manufactured products, the retailers may keep pushing 
Chinese manufactured products. All these require a social movement 
in supporting the ‘Make in India’ initiative.
 
The goal was to encourage more and more investments in a way 
range of sectors and manufacture products in India so that it can lead 
to the creation of new jobs. One of the driving factors that led to the 
success of Narendra Modi’s campaign for winning the election was 
that he promised new jobs for a large number of people all across 
India. The Make in India movement was a step in that direction and it 
meant to improve the value of people living in this country as a 
whole.
 
Both manufacturing and services sectors were meant to benefit from 
this aggressive investment and development. The main sectors in 
which the investments were slated to be made include Information 
Technology, automobile manufacturing, tourism and hospitality, 
biotechnology, designing and manufacturing sectors, chemical 
industry, pharmaceutical industry, renewable energy, electronics, 
textile, and mining just to name a few.
 
Eventually, this led to major investment moves being made by 
investors within the country as well as from other parts of the globe. 
The foreign direct investments (FDI) that were carried out in India 
also surpassed those of the United States and China. In due course of 
time, numerous states also started to launch their investment 
initiatives. In a way, the Make in India movement became one of a 
kind effort by the government to change the economic landscape of 
the country.
 
It is important to note that factory production has been going on in 
India for a long time and the idea is technically nothing new. 
However, what is new is an organized and aggressive approach to try 
and change the economy and improve the prospects of people who 
are working in several sectors. The initiative was also to convert 
India into a truly global hub for all kinds of manufacturing activities. 
Multiple strategies and goals were highlighted to achieve these 
targets so that the investment approaches can generate the best 
results. 
 
One of the main goals was to boost the progress rate of the 
manufacturing sector to about 12% to 14% per annum so that it can 
contribute more to the economic advancement of the country. The 
initiative was also envisioned to create 100 million more 
manufacturing jobs by the year 2022 so that the contribution of this 
sector to national GDP increases to a whopping 25% by 2025. This is 
a massive 9% increase from the current standard of 16%
 
It is therefore necessary to support the ‘Make in India’ movement 
and initiative as it can lead to the tremendous growth of the national 
economy. The movement can not only boost the level of investments 
but also help in the creation of modern infrastructure that can lead to 
an improved way of life. It can also lead to better foreign capital in 
various sectors.
