Early Times Report

Ahmedabad, July 5: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday shared a video of the interaction he had with young employees working at CG Semi Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test (OSAT) facility in Gujarat's Sanand, which he inaugurated a day earlier.
The video, shared on the PM's X account, showed employees from Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir and Bihar speaking about their personal and professional journeys after Modi asked whether their work had brought happiness and changed their lives. Shivani Vikey, from Madhya Pradesh, said she was the first girl from her village to work outside the state. "I am the first daughter of my village to work outside the state. The villagers are impressed that I am self-dependent now," she said during the interaction.
Jharkhand's Poonam Kumari said she secured a job at CG Semi after completing an Industrial Training Institute (ITI) course and was later sent to Malaysia for training.
When Modi remarked that people in her village may have earlier underestimated the value of pursuing an ITI course, Kumar said villagers initially believed she would not achieve much after studying away from home.
"But their perception changed after I started working at the semiconductor facility," Kumari said proudly.
Another employee, Priyanka Dhanwar from Jharkhand, said she was the first person in her family to travel abroad, adding that her achievements had made her parents proud.
The Prime Minister also interacted with Kaushal Kumar from Jammu and Kashmir and Satyam Sinha from Bihar.
Another employee said the training in Malaysia became easier because senior trainers explained concepts in Hindi and through practical demonstrations whenever the trainees faced difficulties in understanding them.
Addressing a gathering after inaugurating the state-of-the-art facility on Saturday, the PM had said semiconductor and AI revolutions would open up countless opportunities and urged young Indians not to miss the moment.
There is unwavering faith in the power and talent of India's youth, the PM had said, adding whenever a new industrial revolution occurs globally, it creates the greatest number of opportunities for young people.
During the address, Modi highlighted the role of women in the emerging semiconductor industry and recalled his interaction with young women technicians from Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Kerala and Chhattisgarh, many of whom came from modest families and studied at Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs).
Several of them had never travelled abroad before being sent to Malaysia for advanced semiconductor training and were now contributing to India's chip manufacturing sector, Modi said during the inaugural event.
Addressing Indians aged between 18 and 20 years, he had said his government's efforts were aimed at ensuring they would raise their families in a developed India by 2047.
