The country is well endowed with many metallic and non-metallic mineral resources. India is a leading player in respect of many non fuel minerals including, iron ore, bauxite, dolomite, lime stone and mica. Mining sector (non-fuel) currently accounts for approx 0.5% of GDP. For accelerated economic growth on sustainable basis, this sector has to grow at a much faster pace to secure a higher percentage in the GDP.

Scientific, sustainable and transparent mining practices require well trained manpower. Skill development not only enhances productivity and safety at work place, but more importantly, it prepares the manpower to adapt to the new state of art technologies. Currently this sector employs around 0.2 Million workforce which is estimated to grow to 0.3 Million in next 10 years.

Poverty is an inability to buy the essential commodities (Food, Shelter and Clothing) for a family. Corporate sectors producing the essential commodities absorb their cost of mismanagement through continual price increase. (Government and private diary farms has escalated the price per liter of milk to an unaffordable level of the poor and middle class people. Oil firms maintain a group of 350 or more people with a monthly salary of Rs 4.9 Lakhs.

Dear PM as you have launched a Make In India campaign which is tremendous as well as encouraging step towards nation development. But as a citizen of India i would like you to please encourage our innovation process, thereby promoting and establishing more Research and Development wings which can and will surely enhance our innovation process which is a key factor towards this initiative. I want to inform you that India invests a very little amount towards R&D sector it is about 1/5 of China.

Dear Modi Sir, we Indians request you to take serious actions against Rapists as now Most of the henious crimes are taking place in India because of the defunct procedural laws and their equally bad implementatioon by police. Jurisdictional issues of crime are given more prominance by courtsand police than prevention and investigation by police and courts. The criminals take full advantage of the loop holes and innocent people suffer. They are even not leaving Kids who is going to Schools.

The concept of volunteer has not developed yet in India unlike North America where students are given priority during vacations for learning new skills by joing business organisations and getting paid in consideration thereof at nominal rates. Besides this CCTV industry has not been tapped whereby more youth can learn skills in this industry and either get jobs or start own businesses in this segment.

Dear Prime Minister, Firstly people should be motivated and inspired to take this mining activity as a profession as equally as engineering, medicine, and other areas of the work / profession. Once a good amount of light is thrown, youngsters choosing and identifying a bright future and opportunities in mining sector, any activity such as training, apprenticeship, diploma will enrich and help drastically across the country. All I say is equal importance to all areas of work.

Dear Sir, I do not assume only classroom activity will help to fill the gap why our science graduate are not being forwarded to such mining and other places where they can be given one year training where they can learn and get benifits in both way to their coming life and interconnet study and industry....which can mitigate the gap .
