India’s Chip Revolution & Semiconductor Mission for UPSC | Insulator vs conductor Explained for IAS

Описание: In this UPSC lecture, we decode everything about Semiconductors and India’s Semiconductor Mission — from chip manufacturing to geopolitics. Understand why semiconductors are called the “new oil,” how the Global Chip Shortage reshaped global supply chains, and India’s roadmap under the Semiconductor Mission, PLI Scheme, and Atmanirbhar Bharat.

We also discuss the semiconductor manufacturing process, India’s electronics policy, and how 5G, AI, and EV sectors depend on chip resilience. Perfect for UPSC aspirants covering GS Paper 3 (Science & Tech + Economy) and Current Affairs.

Watch till the end to get complete clarity on how India aims to become a global semiconductor hub under the Make in India initiative and the PLI Scheme for chip manufacturing.
