Addressing the gathering, the Hon’ble Minister said that BHEL has always risen to the occasion and demonstrated its commitment towards various programs of the Government, whether it was by regularly imparting technical training to apprentices under the ‘Skill India Mission’ or by helping realise the vision of ‘AatmaNirbhar Bharat’ under the ‘Make in India’ initiative.

 

Dr. Pandey said that the Hon’ble Prime Minister has outlined the strengthening of five pillars under ‘AatmaNirbhar Bharat’ namely Economy, Infrastructure, System, Demography and Demand, and BHEL can play an important role in that.

In addition to national security, it is our responsibility to focus on the environment and strengthen ourselves in the area of clean energy. In this direction, I appreciate the contribution being made by BHEL in the area of developing non-conventional sources of energy.
