Make in India campaign marks 2nd year

NEW DELHI: As the Make in India campaign launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi completes two years, the government on Sunday announced that foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows into the country had recorded their highest level on the basis of a yearly comparison.

“India records its highest ever FDI inflows. There has never been a better time to #MakeInIndia,” the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion said in Twitter. “With 2 years of #MakeInIndia comes 2 years of doing business made easier,” it said in a separate tweet.

“The Lion turns two today,” it added in another tweet, referring to the campaign’s lion symbol. India saw a record 53 per cent increase in FDI in the last two years.
