Ashwini Vaishnaw says design capabilities may come under ECMS approval benchmark

NEW DELHI: Union Minister of Railways, Electronics & IT, and Information & Broadcasting Ashwini Vaishnaw Monday said that the companies manufacturing electronics in India should look at developing designing capabilities locally, and that should be one of the criteria in selecting applications under the Electronics Component Manufacturing Scheme (ECMS).

“To achieve long-term success, we will have to focus on three major things. First, we will have to develop our design teams. Whatever be the cost, whatever be the effort, whatever be the hard work that has to be put in, this is something which has to be done,” Vaishnaw said.
