NITI for India-led next industrial revolution

New Delhi: NITI Aayog Vice-Chairman Suman Bery said on Wednesday that India must lead, not follow in the next industrial revolution, which will be defined by industries such as green hydrogen, electric mobility, semiconductors and advanced materials.

Speaking at a conference by the Institute for Studies in Industrial Development (ISID) here, Bery said India should draw lessons from China’s industrial rise, but must forge its own unique path of development.

He emphasised that the next phase of India’s industrial policy needs to focus on inclusion and adaptability rather than merely replicating external models.
