PM Modi Takes Swipe At The Congress
In a swipe at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, Modi said while his government has been targeting ‘Industry 4.0’, a reference to the modern manufacturing process that integrates digital technologies, some people still go to garages and move around tyres.
Gandhi had gone to a garage last year and interacted with mechanics as part of his outreach to different sections of society.
The prime minister said his idea behind rural women using drones, as part of his government’s ‘drone didi’ scheme, was to effect a mindset change in society as well.
