India's Strategy for Competing in Labour-Intensive Manufacturing
India's Approach to Labour-Intensive Manufacturing
India's economy has seen slower growth in the manufacturing sector, particularly in labour-intensive areas. With only 11% of Indians engaged in manufacturing, there’s a significant opportunity for improvement. Innovation and policy changes are key to boosting this figure.
Strategies for Improvement
- Enhancing Skill Development: Investment in education and vocational training.
- Attracting Foreign Investment: Creating a conducive environment for international companies.
- Boosting Exports: Focusing on textile and garment sectors for international markets.
Conclusion: The Path Forward
By focusing on these areas, India can reclaim its position as a leader in the global labour-intensive manufacturing market. Adopting a comprehensive approach will not only create jobs but also increase exports significantly.
