New Delhi, Nov 2 (UNI) Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Saturday called upon Indian youth to indigenously develop high-end technologies, which the country imports, to realise the government's vision of Viksit Bharat.
Addressing the 65th Foundation Day celebrations at IIT, Kanpur, the Defence Minister described ‘technology’ as the biggest factor behind the rapid changes taking place in every field today, with countries competing to master niche tech, such as Artificial Intelligence, to establish an edge in the current geopolitical scenario.
He further pointed out that based on technological developments, there are three groups of countries – the first are at the pinnacle in advanced tech; the second have reached a stagnant state and third are at a stage of technological take-off, an official statement said.
