Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said the notion that start-ups
are only related to IT has been broken by the Start-Up India programme.
Delivering his "Mann Ki Baat" radio address, Modi said Information Technology was only a small part of start-ups.
"It
is the common thought that start-up means a sophisticated business
related to IT. This illusion has been broken after this event on start
up," Modi said, referring to 'Start-Up India'.
Mentioning some
non-IT start-ups, the prime minister referred to two IIM graduates in
Sikkim who were selling herbal and organic products along with others.
The 'Start-Up India Action Plan' was unveiled by Modi at an event on January 16 and provides a three-year tax holiday.
Modi also lauded efforts by citizens across the country to beautify railway stations.
"I
am seeing that these days, at several railway stations, local citizens,
artists and students are beautifying their railway stations.
"This
is neither a railway initiative nor a Narendra Modi initiative... It is
an initiative of the citizens," he said, and urged people to send
pictures of beautified railway stations.
He also talked about
upcoming school board exams, and urged students to share their lessons
learnt from family, teachers and seniors on dealing with exam related
stress.

Dears
I do appreciate and thankful for Hon Prime Minster's vision and intention to Make India in Industrial Globe, but all most all the governmental machineries are not in that level.All The government machineries especially in kerala,most of the Industrial deveopement officers are not knowing or not even understood or trained, what are the proejcts which can be brought under this and wher to start and proceed the project and the initial requirements. Since last July i was struggling to start , a small project( LED Lights Assembling and manufacturing street Lights with Solar panel in pathanamthita dist and till date no one is advised to do what is the first step to do and dialy basis they are chaniging and sending one to another places to collect the information. So I have only suggestion is before declaring anything, we should educate our officers how to take the initiate or they must have the sincerity to discharge their duties and to the nation as well .
So the highest office to look in to the matter seriously and all the formalities and requirements ,to be updated on daily basis in the Official Web site in order to know the public as well, to get benefited.

Dear Mohan Pillai,
you are very correct
I heard that some country, like Japan and China if you have any plan to start business just visit in one time to the officer , they will clearly inform the all the formalities and they will visit your office and provide the all the support.
