What is the News?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) has released the Draft National Strategy on Robotics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the Draft National Strategy on Robotics?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Aim: <\/b>To harness the potential of robotic technology and support its development to make India a global leader in robotics.<\/span><\/p>\n

Objectives: <\/b>To make India a global robotics leader by 2030.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 To build upon the mandates of the Make in India 2.0 plans which identified robotics as one of the 27 sub-sectors to further enhance India\u2019s integration in the global value chain.<\/span><\/p>\n

Core sectors: <\/b>The strategy has identified 1) manufacturing 2) agriculture 3) healthcare and 4) national security as the four core sectors to prioritize robotics automation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Implementation<\/b>: The N<\/span>ational Strategy on Robotics is proposed to be undertaken as the \u2018National Robotics Mission\u2019.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 This mission will be implemented through the establishment of the Robotics Innovation Unit(RIU) as an institutional framework under IndiaAI.<\/span><\/p>\n

Recommendations<\/b>:<\/span> Create Centers of Excellence (CoEs) for research in robotics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Promote private sector participation in key robotic sectors.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Support startups, utilize research capabilities in universities and establish dedicated zones for robotics industries.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 <\/span>Fiscal interventions to facilitate local manufacturing of robotics hardware.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Initially, the government should be a major buyer of Indian-made robotic systems.This can be done through a Public Procurement Policy for Robotics which encourages local production by favoring suppliers with a minimum domestic content requirement.<\/span><\/p>\n

Challenges in India\u2019s robotics sector<\/b>:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 India relies heavily on importing robotics components, mainly from China and Japan.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 The cost of robotics hardware components is high.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Insufficient investments in research and development hinder progress.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Absence of dedicated legislation for robotics or allied technologies such as artificial intelligence.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
