Union Railways and Electronics and IT Minister, Ashwini Vaishnaw, has shared a post on social media platform X, where he is seen unveiling a laptop that is both ‘Designed’ and ‘Made in India’ The initiative aligns with the government’s broader push for domestic electronics manufacturing under the ‘Make in India’ initiative. The clip features Puneet Agarwal, CEO of VVDN Technologies, who explains the entire laptop manufacturing process, from hardware to software. He also provided a glimpse into the factory where the device is being built as per international industry standards. However, the brand name of the laptop has not yet been revealed. The initiative is part of India’s broader effort to promote self-reliance in technology and manufacturing, encouraging more products to be designed, developed, and produced within the country. The PLI scheme, which offers financial incentives to firms investing in local manufacturing, in particular, has attracted major investments in the electronics sector.
