Need to think as much about bricks as we have about clicks: Mukesh Ambani pitches for push to manufacturing

India’s most valuable company Reliance Industries was once fined for producing more than its licensed capacity, its owner and richest Indian Mukesh Ambani ‎said on Monday as he pitched for a push to manufacturing to make the country ‘Aatmanirbhar’ or self-reliant.

“Just like we have start-ups in the technology sector, I think India is ripe now to support small and medium entrepreneurs and get them the physical startup. So we need as much thinking about bricks as we have about clicks,” he said.

Speaking at the launch of the book ‘Portraits of Power’ by N K Singh, Ambani said Jio is answer to his father Dhirubhai’s query long back on whether ‘every Indian could speak with each other at the cost of a postcard’.
