National Productivity Week, 12-18 February 2023


Theme:

 “Productivity, Green Growth and Sustainability: Celebrating India’s G-20 Presidency”

Background Note Excerpts

We need to achieve green growth in GDP and resource use.

Green growth is possible only through sustainable practices, resource efficiency and renewable energy sources.

The green growth is guided by 
(i) reduction in primary resource consumption to ‘sustainable’ levels, in keeping with achieving the Sustainable Development Goals and staying within the planetary boundaries, 
(ii) creation of higher value with less material through resource efficient and circular approaches
(iii) waste minimization
(iv) material security, and creation of employment opportunities and business models beneficial to the cause of environment protection and restoration.

For achieving green growth, enhancement of productivity at all levels in industry, service 
and agriculture sectors is essential. The productivity measurement should include growth in 
contribution of natural capital and to what extent economic growth has been achieved at 
the expense of environment quality.

PM gives a call for self-reliant India; lays down five pillars of Atmanirbhar Bharat

Bold reforms across sectors will drive the country's push towards self-reliance: PM

It is time to become vocal for our local products and make them global: PM
12 MAY 2020  by PIB Delhi

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi addressed the nation today. Recalling those who have died battling the pandemic, Prime Minister said that the crisis that has emerged due to COVID-19 is unprecedented, but in this battle, we not only need to protect ourselves but also have to keep moving forward. 

Self-reliant India

Talking about the pre and post COVID worlds, Prime Minister observed that in order to fulfill the dream of making the 21st century India’s, the way forward is through ensuring that the country becomes self-reliant. Talking about turning a crisis into an opportunity, he gave the example of PPE kits N-95 masks, whose production in India has gone up from almost being negligible to 2 lakh each, on a daily basis.

Prime Minister remarked that the definition of self-reliance has undergone a change in the globalized world and clarified that when the country talks about self-reliance, it is different from being self-centered. He said that India’s culture considers the world as one family, and progress in India is part of, and also contributes to, progress in the whole world.  He noted that the world trusts that India has a lot to contribute towards the development of the entire humanity.

Five pillars of a self-reliant India

Recalling the devastation in Kutch after the earthquake, Prime Minister said that through determination and resolve, the area was back on its feet. A similar determination is needed to make the country self-reliant.

He said that a self-reliant India will stand on five pillars viz. 

Economy, which brings in quantum jump and not incremental change; 

Infrastructure, which should become the identity of India; 

System, based on 21st century technology driven arrangements; 

Vibrant Demography, which is our source of energy for a self-reliant India; and 

Demand, whereby the strength of our demand and supply chain should be utilized to full capacity. He underlined the importance of strengthening all stakeholders in the supply chain to increase, as well as fulfill, the demand.



Atmanirbhar Bharat which translates to 'self-reliant India', is a phrase used and popularized by the Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi and the Government of India in relation to the economic vision and economic development in the country. The broader concept is to make India a larger and more involved part of the world economy, pursuing policies that are efficient, competitive and resilient, that encourage equity, and being self-sustaining and self-generating.

The english phrase has been used by Modi since 2014 in relation to national security, poverty and digital India. The  hindi  term  'Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan' ('Self-Reliant India Mission') was used during the announcement of India's COVID–19 pandemic related economic package in 2020. Since then phrase has been used across ministries such as the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution, the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Defence in relation to press releases, statements and policies. The phrase has also been used by the government in relation to India's new National Education Policy and the 2021 Union Budget of India.
