‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’

PM Modi, in his speech, also laid emphasis on “vocal for local” and “Aatmanirbhar Bharat”, the catchphrases for self-reliance that he has coined in recent months.

“The mindset of free India should be 'vocal for local’,” he reiterated, explaining:

“We should appreciate our local products, if we don’t do this then our products will not get the opportunity to do better and will not get encouraged.”   

PM Modi further said that the 130 crore Indians, amid this COVID-19 pandemic, have pledged to build an ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat.’

“I am confident that India will realise this dream. I am confident of the abilities and potential of my fellow Indians. Once we decide to do something, we do not rest till we achieve that goal.”

According to PTI, PM Modi also said that Foreign Direct Investment inflows have increased by 18 per cent in the last one year, and said that Atmanirbhar Bharat means not only reducing imports, but also increasing our own skills and creativity.
