|October 23, 2024
India's G20 Sherpa and former Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant on Tuesday doubled down that "reskilling" of workforce is most important because India can't grow only on the back of services.

"We need manufacturing," G20 Sherpa Amitabh Kant said, speaking at the NDTV World Summit 2024 here in the national capital.
"India can't grow only on the back of services. India needs to become a manufacturing nation. 17.5 per cent of your GDP comes from manufacturing. You need to take it to 25 per cent. You need to urbanize, because 500 million people are going to get into the process of urbanization in the next five decades."
