PM Narendra Modi In his 65th ‘Mann ki Baat’ address, on 31st May, said that the pursuit of Atmanirbhar Bharat, or self-reliant India, will take the country to new heights in this decade. Modi indicated the need to restrict import of goods that can be manufactured in the country, which is also known as import substitution. The PM spoke of the need to offer a “new paradigm” to offer jobs and self-employment opportunities to millions of migrant workers who have headed home to their towns and villages by setting up cottage and small scale industries. Modi said a national migrant commission could soon be set up while skill mapping of migrant workers is being done, including by private start-ups.
