The long arm of the project is to make India  ‘Aatma Nirbhar’  and in the process increase the credibility of Indian brand value in the global market.  Through this initiative, the government aims to motivate large and small scale manufacturers to produce quality worthy products for export, so that the market for export could be expanded in the coming days.

Aim of the initiative:

  1. Generate more employment opportunities for youth
  2. Ensuring an all-round holistic development and growth of infrastructure
  3. Upskilling local manufactures so that they can compete on the global market
  4. Developing new possibilities like cutting edge innovation, new-age technology for future new economic zones
  5. Make India independent in the sector of import and export.

In his vision of all-round development, this initiative was tabled on the day of Independence. However, a detailed roadmap regarding the initiative will be announced in the coming days. As PM said, “ The coming days will witness the launch of the PM Gati Shakti Plan, which will be an Rs100 lakh crore master plan for national infrastructure”. Thus earmarking India’s new development journey
