The Make in India initiative was launched in 2014 to encourage manufacturing companies to produce goods in India and increase investment in the manufacturing sector. It aims to make India a global hub for manufacturing. Key objectives include creating jobs, promoting economic development, and gaining global recognition. The campaign will provide skills training programs, focus on 25 sectors like defense and automobiles, and open over 1000 new training centers in the next two years to develop a skilled workforce. It also simplifies processes like environmental clearances and introduces reforms like increased FDI limits to improve India's business climate and attract more foreign investment for manufacturing in India.
