There are five things that any big factory, whether
it makes cloth or shoes or matches or motor cars
needs. First of all there must be people to buy the
things they produce: that is, a market for the
goods. The huge population of India is one of the
biggest markets in the world. There must be the
available the raw materials for making the
finished articles. We have almost all the raw
materials a country can possibly need.
Next we need workers to work in the factory. That
need is easily met by the huge population in our
villages.
