PM Modi said...
PM Modi said that we are working on the next phase of India Semiconductor Mission. Now the day is not far when the smallest chip made in India will bring the biggest change in the world. The government is going to give shape to the new DLI (Design-Linked Incentive) scheme. Despite global uncertainties and economic challenges, the Indian economy grew at a rate of 7.8% in the first quarter, which is more than all expectations. This growth is visible in all sectors such as manufacturing, service, construction and agriculture. India's rapid development is infusing new energy in all industries and every citizen. This pace of development is rapidly leading India to become the third largest economy in the world.
What is a semiconductor chip?
A semiconductor chip is a small board made of a material that is prepared from silicon. It contains an integrated circuit (IC). These chips are very useful for any electronics device. In a way, they can be called the brain of a device. They are used in smartphones, computers, cars, TVs, industrial machines and medical devices.
