NEW DELHI: Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani on Thursday described the launch of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “Make in India” campaign as a “historic” day for Indian industry and said his company will create 1.25 lakh new jobs over the next 12-15 months as part of the movement.
Welcoming the PM’s initiative, Ambani said, “It is important to be open to capital and expertise from all over the world. Implementation of GST will make India one market and strengthen overall ‘Make in India’ programme, he said.
“PM Modi dreams and does, working 14 hours a day and motivates a billion Indians to dream and do,” said Mr Ambani, who was among the few corporate honchos to make a speech at the marquee event.
He said the ambitious programme will make India globally competitive and put the country on a fast-growth trajectory. “I firmly believe 8-10 per cent for a long period of time is the right potential for India,” he said.
