    Manufacturing opportunities are at India's door, thanks to most big countries wanting to shift base from China due to various reasons such as poor COVID management and poor finish of products, inferior quality. India needs to to max leverage and grab with open arms! Also the Govt is correctly handling the economic growth with lot of impetus on MSMEs which alone will be critical to this target. The onus also lies in big industries in India maximizing their capabilities by providing more employment opportunities to our large skill developed work force! Let India shine!

    Chief Secretaries are unelected, 9-5 public servants. They get their salary, houses, cars, domestic servants/drivers/gardeners, and whatever else - whether the country is on a 5 trillion path, or down at 2 million doldrums. The whole meeting exercise is a complete waste of time, effort and money.

    Wastage of time, resources and tax payers money. Only serves media for election campaigning. If by holding meetings to achieve record economic growth then Somalia, Pakistan and N. Korea would have become $ 10 Tr economy long time ago. Here in Karnataka ministers are saying Love-Jihad and other communal matters are more important than any other developmental work to make India $ 5Tr economy.
