it
as
the
most
important
initiative
by
Prime

jobs
in
the
country."Make
in
India
is
perhaps
the
single
most
important
initiative
by
our
honourable
Prime
Minister
Narendra
Modi,
which
propels
companies
in
India
and
abroad
to
make
in
our
own
country
and
our
own
land,
thereby
creating
job
opportunities,
skill

of
BJP
leader
Shaina
NC's
coffee
table
book,
'Movers
and
Makers'
which
is
a
tribute
to
Make
in
India.
The
Fan
star
said
the
introduction
of
new
technological
enhancement
through
Make
in
India
will
be
beneficial
for
several
generations.
"For
me,
the
biggest
turn
on
is
the
introduction
of
new
technology,
which
I
believe
is
going
to
create
a
new
era
for
our
generation
and
generations
to
come,"
he
said.
Maharashtra
Chief
Minister
Devendra
Fadnavis
termed
the
book
as
the
best
documentation
of
the
seven-day
event,
'Make
in
India
Week',
held
in
Mumbai
in
February
this
year
and
said
he
became
nostalgic
while
reading
the
book.
"While
going
through
the
book
I
became
a
little
nostalgic
because
those
seven
days
for
us
were
very
challenging
and
encouraging
as
well.
I
feel
this
documentation
of
the
events
is
very
important
because
after
the
event
is
over
new
people
come
to
us.
This
is
the
best
thing
we
can
present
them.
This
coffee
table
book,
if
presented
to
a
new
investor,
he
understands
the
strength
of
Maharashtra
and
what
it
stands
for,"
he
said.
Shaina
said
several
people
worked
hard
for
the
event
which
was
not
just
an
initiative
but
a
vision."We
must
realise
the
amount
of
people
who
have
put
together
this
mammoth
project
called
the
'Make
in
India
Week'
and
under
that
we
had
a
'Magnetic
Maharashtra'
stall
which
was
visited
by
lakhs
of
people.
This
is
not
just
about
MOUs
but
about
the
vision," she
said.
State
Industries
Minister
Subhash
Desai
and
MoS
for
Industries
and

Pote
Patil
