Vaishnaw, who holds the portfolio of Railways as well as Electronics and Information Technology, stated that “I’d like to thank Micron’s team for the passion with which they have started the construction work, the pace they have set for talent development, and the meticulous planning they have undertaken. This dedication gives us confidence that, in 2024, the first made-in-India memory chip will be produced at the Micron plant here in Gujarat.”
Ashwini Vaishnaw, while addressing a seminar, said, “The bullet train project is going on at a very, very rapid pace… I’d like to thank the Gujarat CM; due to his support, PM Modi’s vision to connect Mumbai and Ahmedabad via a bullet train is progressing very successfully. So much so that work on 270 km is practically complete, and there is a complete possibility that the first bullet train will run between Surat and Bilimora in 2026.”
Micron Technology initiated the construction of its Gujarat plant in September of last year, following an agreement signed with India during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to the US in June. DeshGujarat
