Economic Survey highlights the engagement of around 500 MSMEs in building aircraft carrier INS Vikrant
The Economic Survey reveals that almost 500 micro, small and medium enterprises, 12,000 employees from ancillary industries and 2,000 shipyard employees were engaged to build the recently commissioned INS Vikrant, India’s flagship aircraft carrier.
The Indian Navy’s indigenisation initiatives have caused a significant infusion of economic activity by creating employment opportunities for MSMEs and other industries, said the Survey tabled in Parliament. The Survey highlights that the recently commissioned INS Vikrant alone engaged approximately 500 MSMEs, 12,000 employees from ancillary industries, and 2,000 shipyard employees.
INS Vikrant is the largest ship ever built in maritime history of India and houses state-of-the-art automation features.
