Prime Minister Narendra Modi celebrated a transformative leap for Indian manufacturing by opening Micron Technology’s cutting-edge semiconductor ATMP facility in Sanand, Gujarat. Speaking at the event, he framed it as a crucial juncture following India’s AI summit triumph, solidifying the country’s tech credentials worldwide.
Modi underscored the dramatic shift: a decade ago, semiconductors were niche; today, India is charging into the global value chain with purpose. ‘We’re not just participating—we’re accelerating,’ he stated, congratulating Micron, Gujarat’s leadership under CM Bhupendra Patel, and the hands-on teams.
Detailing the timeline’s efficiency—MoU to production in under three years—PM Modi contrasted it with global norms of multi-year delays. This success stems from transparent policies and growth-focused resolve, he explained. The plant stands as a model of India’s end-to-end manufacturing prowess, from intent to implementation.
Grateful nods to Micron’s top brass capped his remarks. As chips power everything from mobiles to missiles, this facility promises to generate employment, attract investments, and position India as a resilient hub in volatile global supply chains, marking a new chapter in economic sovereignty.
