Steering committe of Industry held its first meeting under the chairmanship of Shri Arun Maira on 13.4.2011.
(  Summary record of the meeting http://www.mines.nic.in/writereaddata%5CContentlinks%5C4847b31a7ddb488892fcdea6068599a1.pdf   )


Regarding human resources the following issues were highlighted.

HRD & Skill Resources for Indian Manufacturing
- Lack of talent and non-availability of quality manpower of requisite skill had greatly crippled the domestic manufacturing. One of the major factors for this has been acontinuous drift of quality manpower towards the service sectors with lucrative emoluments like IT, financial services etc. The same should be viewed as low value addition by highly-skilled work force. It would be essential to bring back the attractiveness of the domestic manufacturing sector so as to retain talent and technical manpower.

- The overarching issue of talent crunch in domestic manufacturing could be resolved by some incentivization.

- For a vibrant manufacturing sector, the country should make a concerted effort to have alarge pool of efficient manufacturing managers in place of mere technical personnel withtraditional skill sets.

- Labour productivity is important implement for manufacturing sector to combat fierce competition. On this count, reasons for its wide-scale variance from one state to anotherstate need to be gone into and prescribe appropriate measures to have a uniform and efficient labour productivity regime all over the country.

Steering committee of Industry held its second meeting under the chairmanship of Shri Arun Maira on 31.5.2011.
( Summary record of the meeting  http://mines.nic.in/writereaddata/filelinks/c3bd2fd8_NOTICE.pdf   )

Mr. Olivier Scalabre, a partner in BCG  gave a presentation to the group on manufacturing in China in the meeting.

Development of Technology: China emphasizes technology absorption and pays special attention to this aspect. Import items are localized with technology transfer agreemnt in a short time frame. The transfer of technology is being hastened and now it is being done shorter time frames, within 5 years. China also invests heavily on Research and Development (R&D) that helps in absorption of technology and it  has also reduced China's dependence on import of technology from western countries.

The National Manufacturing Policy


 which
was introduced in 2011, states these objectives and these are the underlying objectives that the
Plan aims to achieve as well. These objectives are:
I. Increase manufacturing sector growth to 12-14% over the medium term to make it the
engine of growth for the economy. The 2 to 4 % differential over the medium term
growth rate of the overall economy will enable manufacturing to contribute at least 25%
of the National GDP by 2025.
II. Increase the rate of job creation in manufacturing to create 100 million additional jobs
by 2025. Emphasis should be given to creation of appropriate skill sets among the rural
migrant and urban poor to make growth inclusive.
III. Increase ‘depth’ in manufacturing, with focus on the level of domestic value addition, to
address the national strategic requirements.
IV. Enhance global competitiveness of Indian manufacturing through appropriate policy
support.
V. Ensure sustainability of growth, particularly with regard to the environment.
