Experts say government measures facilitate supply of poor quality equipment and threaten to hobble country’s research efforts

The Narendra Modi government’s Make-in-India campaign and e-marketplace initiative have stirred frustration among scientists who say these measures facilitate the supply of poor quality equipment and threaten to hobble the country’s research efforts.

The Make-in-India campaign embedded in the Government-e-marketplace (GeM), a portal for online procurement, appears to have ignored the realities of India’s ability to manufacture research equipment, scientists from top academic institutions say.

The Union commerce and industry ministry has set up the GeM for the procurement of products and services by central and state government departments and public-funded academic and autonomous institutions.

The GeM requires sellers to specify the country of origin or local content, if any, of their products and accords priority to products with more than 50 per cent local content. This is meant to promote Make-in-India, a campaign launched in September 2014 to foster innovation and help turn India into a hub of manufacturing, design and innovation.
