“I still don't see that sense of urgency when people are assessing their supply chain to see where the concentration of a geography or a supplier can hurt their long-term survival. And such areas of concern, if we can identify them quickly, if we can plug them quickly, will be essential in our long-term strategies to survive and then to grow,’ the minister said at the CII IndiaEdge 2025.
