- इलेक्ट्रॉनिक्स एवं आईटी मंत्री रवि शंकर प्रसाद ने कहा कि अब मोबाइल फोन निर्माण में चीन को पीछे छोड़ना भारत का लक्ष्य है। मोबाइल फोन निर्माण में देश को नंबर-वन बनाने के लिए अगस्त से सरकार ने प्रोडक्शन लिंक्ड इंसेंटिव (पीएलआइ) स्कीम शुरू की है।
- इंडियन सेल्यूलर एंड इलेक्ट्रॉनिक्स एसोसिएशन (आइसीइए) के मुताबिक अगले वर्ष मार्च तक भारत का लैपटॉप आयात पांच अरब डॉलर यानी करीब 38,750 करोड़ रुपये मूल्य तक पहुंच जाएगा। इनमें अकेले चीन की हिस्सेदारी 4.37 अरब डॉलर यानी लगभग 32,775 करोड़ रुपये मूल्य की होगी।
- लैपटॉप जैसी इलेक्ट्रॉनिक्स वस्तुओं के निर्माण को पीएलआइ स्कीम से जोड़ने पर चीन से आयात में कमी के साथ भारत मोबाइल फोन की तरह लैपटॉप का प्रमुख निर्यातक देश बन सकता है।

- Agritech startup TartanSense, a YourStory Tech30 2020 winner, has built a small agricultural robot that can identify weeds and spray them with pesticides.
- Bengaluru-based agritech startup, TartanSense, is attempting to help farmers by addressing the pain points of weeding and pest control. Founded by Jaisimha Rao in 2015, the startup has built a small agricultural robot that can not only move around on farmlands and identify weeds, but can also spray them with pesticides.
- Jaisimha was previously working as the Vice President at Blackrock, a New York-based global investment management company. After a decade of working professionally as a trader, he returned to India to take care of his coffee plantation in Karnataka. That was when he noticed that agricultural activities and decisions were not backed by data or any real-time insights. So, he decided to establish TartanSense to make agriculture more data-driven.
