India has great strength in the fields of nuclear energy technology, space technology, information technology, biotechnology and marine technology.
pillar industries:
industrial development
The main industries include textiles, food processing, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, steel, cement, petroleum and machinery. Emerging industries such as automobiles, electronics manufacturing, aviation and space have developed rapidly. India seeks to become a "technology manufacturing center".
On June 22nd, 216, India's ambitious space program set a new record for the country, with a rocket carrying 2 satellites. The rocket carried satellites from the United States, Canada, Germany and Indonesia.
On August 11th, 217, the data released by the Central Bureau of Statistics of India showed that India's industrial production index in June dropped by .1% year-on-year to 119.6, the lowest point in four years. [35]
Agricultural development
India is a big agricultural country, and the rural population accounts for 72% of the total population. India is one of the largest grain producers in the world, with one tenth of the world's arable land, covering an area of about 16 million hectares. According to the EU report, India has become a net exporter of agricultural products.
tourism development
India's tourism and service industries are also relatively developed, accounting for a considerable proportion of the national economy. Tourism is a key industry of the Indian government and an important employment sector, providing more than 2 million jobs. The number of inbound tourists is increasing year by year, and the tourism income is increasing. The main tourist spots are Agra, Delhi, Jaipur, Chandigarh, Nalanda, Mysore, Goa, Taj Mahal, Hyderabad, Telang, Trifan and so on. India selected its seven historical wonders-Rajasthan style.
Science and technology:
Information technology
The success of information technology in India is well known. India has made brilliant achievements by providing services to developed countries with its talent advantages. The contribution of information technology industry to India's GDP has increased from 1.2% in 1999-2 to an estimated 4.8% in 25-26. India's software and information technology-driven services have grown at an average annual rate of more than 28% in the past five years. The success of information technology has completely changed the evaluation and impression of India in Europe and the United States. More importantly, it has changed India's view of its own potential and is cultivating India's scientific self-confidence. India's success in the field of information technology has also played an important role in attracting multinational R&D centers and foreign Indians to invest in India.
biotechnology
India has established new key areas and development directions, among which biotechnology is the focus. In the past 1 years, the R&D investment in biotechnology has increased from $96 million in 1987-1988 to $358 million in 24-25, in which the increased funds mainly support biopharmaceuticals rather than agricultural biotechnology.
In p>24—25, India's income from biotechnology increased by 37%, reaching $1.1 billion. The national biotechnology development strategy has set a target of raising this figure to 5 billion US dollars in 21. In March, 25, the Indian Minister of Science praised biotechnology as the "best batter" of the Indian team, and thought that biotechnology could be the "next great success example" of India, which could help to provide affordable health care and alleviate poverty. In 24, the Ministry of Biotechnology issued a plan to turn India into a "global center of bioinformatics".
Space technology
After years of development, the research and application technology of Indian satellites has reached or approached the international advanced level, and its launch vehicle technology has also made continuous breakthroughs. In 29, India had four types of domestic launch vehicles: Satellite Launch Vehicle 3 (SLV-3), Accelerated Launch Vehicle (ASLV), Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) and Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV). While vigorously developing rocket and satellite technology, India also seeks to make greater achievements. For example, in 27, India sent the first recoverable space capsule and three satellites into space by a polar satellite launch vehicle, which obtained important data for the country's future manned space program. In addition, India is still implementing its own lunar exploration plan in full swing. In 28, the Indian Space Research Organization launched India's first lunar probe "Yuechuan-1" with a polar satellite launch vehicle.
India wants to build a satellite center in Vietnam
At 9: 2 on April 28th, 28 (11: 5 Beijing time), an Indian PSLV-C9 rocket was launched with 1 satellites. After the United States, Russian Federation, European Space Agency and China, the fifth one has mastered the launching technology of "multiple satellites with one arrow". And ten stars with one arrow become the first. On January 26th, Indian officials said that India would set up a satellite tracking and data receiving center in southern Vietnam. After the completion, Vietnam can obtain the images of this area returned by Indian Earth observation satellites in real time.
