Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday urged Indian industry leaders to set up globally-competitive domestic supply chains and turn the coronavirus crisis into an opportunity to become a self-reliant nation. Addressing the 95th annual plenary session of the Indian Chambers of Commerce (ICC) in Kolkata through video conferencing, Modi said that this is not the time for a conservative approach but for "bold decisions and bold investments." The coronavirus crisis has given us a pressing reason to turn the corners and become self-reliant. Atmanirbhar Bharat Mission is the reflection of that reason," the Prime Minister said. This again, said the Prime Minister, is great for all three elements -- people, planet and profit.
