Under the Make in India vision and the roadmap to Vision 2047, India’s semiconductor journey is gaining strong momentum. Indigenous processors like DHRUV64, along with the upcoming Dhanush and Dhanush+ chips, supported by national initiatives such as Digital India RISC V, reflect India’s transition from being a technology consumer to a technology creator. These homegrown semiconductor efforts are strengthening self reliance, building strategic capabilities across digital infrastructure, defence and advanced industries, and laying the foundation for a resilient innovation driven economy. Vision 2047 sets a clear direction for India to emerge as a leading force in the global semiconductor value chain.

Some deep thinking ambition behind the naming? Dhruva from the puraNa, "who, after being mistreated by his stepmother, performed severe penance and was rewarded by Vishnu by becoming the Pole Star.".

@grok is it possible to make entirely indigenous or India needs to source some rare items from outside to make a micro processor?

india is deliberately playing a long game of option creation. even if global supply chains remain open, indigenous compute gives us leverage. if they fracture, we are not frozen out. that optionality itself is power. critics will scoff at clock speeds. serious strategists look at control surfaces :)

"Amidst the rising cost of these chips (processors), the Made in India 28nm DHRUV64 is the first key step! I offer my full support, and eagerly await the day when we have homegrown chipsets smaller than 6nm for smartphones and all other tech—wow!" 🙌🙌🇮🇳🇮🇳

Future is Here: Sustainable Transport Revolution Begins with India’s First EV Cargo Truck Launched India’s first EV-powered cargo truck, indigenously manufactured by Blue Energy Motors in Pune. This is a defining step in India’s electric mobility revolution, truly our 'Tesla Moment' in the cargo transport sector. While electrification of public transport has seen rapid progress, the need for decarbonisation of cargo handling vehicles was long overdue. Cargo trucks contribute significantly to vehicular emissions, and this innovation is a major stride towards sustainability and a cleaner logistics ecosystem. Stated that India needed its own indigenous manufacturer to revolutionise the cargo transportation sector. Appreciated Blue Energy Motors for delivering on this vision by launching a state-of-the-art, Made-in-India EV truck, fulfilling the dream of Hon PM Narendra Modi Ji’s Make in India mission initiated in 2014. This journey began with an MoU signed in Davos and Blue Energy Motors has honoured the commitment with successful execution. The introduction of battery-swapping technology is a game changer and is poised to revolutionise the EV sector. Maharashtra will continue to strengthen EV infrastructure along the Mumbai–Pune corridor. Under the state’s renewable energy vision, by 2030, 52% of energy generation will be from renewable sources, and by 2035 it will reach 75–80%, creating a robust foundation for a sustainable future. Congratulated the promoters, developers, engineers, designers and workers of Blue Energy Motors for their vision and contribution to India’s clean mobility revolution.

#WATCH | Delhi | On Semiconductor Sector Skilling, National Institute of Electronics & Information Technology Director General, Madan Mohan Tripathi says, "The Cabinet recently approved ISM 2.0, involving an outlay of approximately Rs 1.28 lakh crore. Skill development is a crucial component of this initiative. The government is continuously taking new steps to boost the semiconductor ecosystem in India—moving from ISM 1.0 to ISM 2.0—and has approved numerous manufacturing plants and projects... Under the leadership of Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, NIELIT is actively engaged in digital skill development. Specifically for the semiconductor sector, we are establishing two Centres of Excellence to provide training in OSAT and ATMP processes—in Ahmedabad and Guwahati. We have signed MoUs with Tata Electronics for the Guwahati facility and with Infineon for the Ahmedabad facility. We are also collaborating with other manufacturing plants... to prepare the workforce required for their operations... Through NIELIT’s 'Deemed-to-be-University' status, we are launching various BTech, MTech, and diploma programs focused on semiconductors, semiconductor manufacturing... thereby creating a specialised workforce... We also have an agreement with Semiconductor Complex Limited (SCL) in Mohali, which enables the actual manufacturing of these products. In this way, we cover the entire skilling spectrum in the semiconductor domain, providing training that goes beyond academics to empower students to create real-world products. Beyond semiconductors, significant work is also underway in fields like Artificial Intelligence. Under the 'India AI Mission,' 28 AI labs have been set up across India—particularly in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities. We are running approximately 42 programs through which we have already trained 20,000 individuals, resulting in the development of various grassroots-level products..."
