Mukesh Ambani speaks at RIL AGM.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani on Friday quoted Prime Minister Narendra Modi to call for \u2018aatma nirbharta\u2019 [self-reliance], noting the immediate need for India to become self-reliant \u201cto the maximum extent”.<\/p>\n

Addressing shareholders at the 48th Annual General Meeting, Ambani said: \u201cOur Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi ji, rightly exhorted us in his Independence Day speech that the yardstick of aatma samman [self-respect] is atma nirbharata [self-reliance]. India must become self-reliant to the maximum extent in key technologies, critical industries, and other vital sectors of the global economy.”<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cThe most important lesson this journey has taught us is that there is no substitute for economic strength. This lesson is reinforced by recent geopolitical developments.”<\/p>\n

Ambani\u2019s comments come at a time when the United States has levied a 50 per cent tariff on India\u2014among the highest in the world\u2014including a 25 per cent penalty for the country\u2019s transactions with Russia.<\/p>\n

India, however, has shown no signs of going back on its purchases and has called the tariffs \u201cunfair”, emphasising that it will choose the \u201cbest deal” on buying oil to protect its 1.4 billion people.<\/p>\n

Touching upon the geo-political dynamics, Ambani said: \u201cI have witnessed India\u2019s incredible journey in these five decades\u2014from a \u201cThird World” country to one now on the threshold of becoming a First World Power. The most important lesson this journey has taught us is that there is no substitute for economic strength. India must gain greater economic strength \u2500 and do so with a sense of urgency.”<\/p>\n

The RIL chairman also called upon all businesses to work together to overcome the challenge. \u201cThe magnitude of the challenge is so large that all Indian businesses must work together with unity as a grand coalition\u2014in the spirit of cooperation, mutual learning, and mutual support. I had made this suggestion in last year\u2019s AGM, and I repeat it today. There is strength in unity and collective endeavour. And this is what the nation today expects from its business community.”<\/p>\n
