Self-Reliant India aims to boost the nation’s independence in economy and innovation. But is it genuine progress or just political propaganda? Let’s explore.
How Rahul Gandhi is Trying to Sabotage Bharat’s Manufacturing Rise
📍 Context
As India enters the Amrit Kaal — a defining period of transformation and resurgence — efforts are being made to establish Bharat as a global hub of high-tech manufacturing, electronics production, and self-reliance. While most citizens welcome this resurgence, a section of the political class, led by Rahul Gandhi, seems intent on undermining it — not just out of ignorance, but out of political insecurity and ideological bias.
🛠️ The Nehru Place Drama: Rahul Gandhi’s Misleading Walkthrough
Rahul Gandhi recently walked through Nehru Place, one of Asia’s largest IT hardware markets, and attempted to showcase that:
- ‘Make in India’ is a lie, and
- India is still fully dependent on Chinese components.
But what he claimed as “truth” is Not true truth and a deliberate distortion
📈 The Reality: Bharat is Building, Not Just Assembling
India’s electronics manufacturing industry has gone from near-zero to a global player in under a decade:
- Over ₹2.2 lakh crore worth of mobile phones were manufactured in 2024.
- Apple now manufactures iPhones in India, and 20–25% of their components are sourced locally — a massive leap in just 4 years.
- Companies like Samsung, Tata Electronics, Dixon, Foxlink, and Wistron have set up high-value component manufacturing units in states like Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and UP.
➡️ What Rahul calls “screwdriver tech” is exactly how China began in the 1980s.
➡️ Within a decade, India will be a semiconductor and high-end electronics hub, and Congress knows it.
🇮🇳 Strategic Vision: Modi’s Make in India vs Congress’s Missed Opportunities
🔴 Under Congress (2004–2014):
- Electronics imports skyrocketed, making India 100% import-dependent.
- Chinese companies were given red-carpet treatment.
- No major mobile phone or component manufacturer had set foot in India.
- The manufacturing share in GDP stagnated at 15% despite tall promises.
🟢 Under Modi (2014–Present):
- India’s electronics manufacturing value has grown by over 600%.
- India became the second-largest mobile phone producer globally.
- PLI Scheme launched — offering ₹1.97 lakh crore incentives to attract global manufacturers.
- Semiconductor parks coming up in Gujarat and Tamil Nadu.
Rahul Gandhi’s mockery of “Make in India” is not just political criticism — it is sabotage of national progress.
⚠️ The China Trade Hypocrisy
Rahul Gandhi falsely blames Modi for increased imports from China — but let’s look at real data:
| Year | India’s Imports from China |
| 2004 (UPA begins) | $7.5 billion |
| 2014 (UPA ends) | $60+ billion |
| 2024 (Modi govt) | ~$90 billion* |
🔍 While absolute numbers rose, the rate of growth slowed, and Modi launched several anti-China economic actions:
- Banned Chinese apps (TikTok, etc.)
- Restricted Chinese companies from key sectors
- Increased local manufacturing to reduce imports
Meanwhile, the Congress ecosystem:
Promoted Chinese investments (MoUs signed with Huawei, Xiaomi under UPA)
Kept silent on Chinese border aggression (remember 1962?)
And now cries foul when India fights back economically and diplomatically.
📉 What About GDP Share of Manufacturing?
Another Congress lie is that “manufacturing share in GDP is falling”:
✔ In truth, manufacturing’s share may appear smaller because India’s GDP has grown rapidly — especially through IT and services.
✔ The absolute value of manufacturing has increased steadily, creating millions of jobs, especially in Tier 2–3 cities.
Moreover, Modi is correcting a historical blunder:
- Congress allowed India to jump from agriculture to services — skipping the manufacturing phase. This “premature de-industrialization” was an economic disaster.
Now, India is catching up.
🧠 What Rahul Gandhi Doesn’t Understand (or Pretends Not To)
- Manufacturing doesn’t begin with 100% local content. Even Japan and South Korea started by importing most components.
- It takes vision, consistency, and infrastructure development — all being done under Modi.
- Even Steve Jobs began by outsourcing iPhone production — India is moving up the same ladder, fast.
Rahul wants a shortcut — or worse, he wants nothing to work unless Congress is in power.
🔥 The Real Reason Behind the Congress Attacks
Rahul Gandhi and his ecosystem see a threat:
- If India becomes a manufacturing powerhouse, the Hindu middle class, youth, and entrepreneurs will grow stronger — and less dependent on freebies and victimhood politics.
- That would destroy the Congress model of dependency, dynastic politics, and identity appeasement.
So they:
- Discredit Atmanirbhar Bharat
- Undermine Digital India
- Mock Vocal for Local
- Spread lies about GDP, growth, and employment
🙏 The Call to Action
We must educate every Indian:
✅ Manufacturing is not a switch — it is a strategic process, and Bharat is on the right path.
✅ Don’t let misinformation by political dynasts rob us of our confidence.
✅ Support local, speak the truth, and stay alert against propaganda.
🇮🇳Jai Bharat, Vandematram 🇮🇳
