NEW DELHI, Dec 11: “Investigating untapped or less-explored sectors is crucial for realizing the India 2047 vision”.
This statement was made today by Union Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh during his address at the “States’ Policy Conclave 2024” organized by the PHD Chamber of Commerce & Industry.
The Minister emphasized the necessity to delve into areas such as the deep sea and the Himalayas. He projected that by the end of next year, India would be equipped to launch its deep-sea mission. He highlighted that marine resources remain significantly underutilized. A total of twelve Indian States span over 7500 kilometers along the coastline from Odisha to Maharashtra.
Dr. Jitendra Singh remarked that the deep sea holds a vast concentration of natural resources that could potentially bolster the nation’s growth trajectory. He mentioned that our ancestors recognized the potential of the deep sea.
The Minister also noted that for the past decade, India has enjoyed a favorable political climate, which could further aid in reaching the goals set for 2047. He pointed out that political challenges had hindered deep-sea exploration for the past 70 years.
He further stressed that Himalayan resources are equally crucial for the States situated in that region, such as Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. He asserted that this government has prioritized marine resources and is preparing for the purple mission. Over the last two Independence Day speeches (2022-2023), Prime Minister Modi mentioned this focus, which is typically not included in such addresses. However, by next year, he assured that India would undertake all deep-sea missions.
Dr. Jitendra Singh explained that starting a startup doesn’t necessitate proficiency in English; it’s accessible to anyone, but maintaining one poses significant challenges. Highlighting the growth of lavender startups, he noted that J&K now hosts approximately 3000 lavender-focused ventures.
He emphasized that from the outset, creating strong industry linkages is essential. We must foster connections between academic research and industry as closely as possible. In 2014, India had merely 350 startups, rising dramatically to 1.7 lakh today, positioning us third globally. He stated that his government is considering launching a national resource foundation designed with a global strategy to meet the 2047 objectives.
