Amid China tensions L&T assures commitment to self reliant India

New Delhi: As the call grows for an 'Aatmanirbhar Bharat' or a 'Self Reliant' India amid the border tensions with China, industrial conglomerate Larsen & Toubro (L&T) has said that it is committed towards the objective, and stands with the policy of "best-in-class" manufacturing in India.

In a regulatory filing on Tuesday, L&T said that is committed to achieve self reliance for the domestic industry by creating a strong and feasible 'Make in India' ecosystem.

S. N.Subrahmanyan, CEO & MD, L&T said: "With an unfortunate incident involving our brave soldiers at our border, sentiments are running high in the country. As a company involved in nation-building for more than eight decades, we firmly stand with the policy of manufacturing best-in-class products locally through 'Make in India'."

He said that India can "drastically" reduce its dependency on imported products, including those from China by putting processes and systems in place to develop a large scale, efficient and cost-effective domestic industrial ecosystem over a medium to long term.

Subrahmanyan was of the view that the atmosphere is right for such actions to make the country self-reliant and less dependent on other countries.

"We are fully supportive of the Government of India's initiatives and will do our best to contribute to Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan," he added. (IANS)
