◆Electronic goods makers to get boost with 8 new clusters
【New Delhi】India will soon have eight new electronic manufacturing clusters as the new government gets going with its agenda of making India a hub for indigenous goods and reducing dependence on imports.
 "Eight clusters for electronic manufacturing have been approved," telecom and law minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said at an interaction between the government and the American Chamber of Commerce in India, Wednesday.
 India imports 90% of the electronic goods used by its citizens, which may well surpass the oil import bill of $400 billion soon. "I'm going to address this," Prasad added, underlining the criticality of local semiconductor wafer fabrication (FAB) manufacturing facilities, which will help in reducing the dependence on imports.
