The Centre has initiated an exercise to revise the 'Make in India' action plan, a top official said today.

Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion secretary Ramesh Abhishek said that the commerce and industry ministry has reviewed the action plan with all departments and has also discussed it with all stakeholders, including industry associations.

Based on the meetings, 'now we have a tentative revised plan which has been now proposed to various ministries and departments. We have requested them to examine the inputs received from the industry', he said.

"We have requested them to see whether, how and in what manner these Make in India action plans can be revised. We have also decided to do a kind of reality check on what has been achieved so far in the last two years," he told reporters.

The 'Make in India' programme was launched in September 2014 with an aim to make the country a global manufacturing hub and attract investments.
