The government’s next push Aatmanirbhar Bharat or self-reliant scheme will focus on deeptech and mobility sectors among 25 other focus areas. The Department for Promotion for Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) says these focus sectors will help in import substitution and boost exports.  

Officials quoted by ET say that DPIIT has been asked to lead the exercise, which will find domestic alternatives in drones, robotics and electric vehicle equipment. Among the total 25 focus sectors that the department has zeroed in on, a few sectors will be identified as ‘priority’ with potential for import substitution and boosting exports, and DPIIT would also look at any overlaps with similar initiatives of other ministries.
