BENGALURU: IT and Broadcasting Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said here on Saturday that electronics component manufacturing in India is witnessing a rapid growth, with 46 projects approved and over Rs 10,000 crore investment flowing into Karnataka alone.
After inaugurating Zetwerks manufacturing facility, he said that every component and product manufactured in India must adhere to stringent Six Sigma quality standards to compete successfully at the global level.
“After finished products, electronics component manufacturing is now taking off like a hockey stick,” he said.
