India Launches DHRUV64, Boosting Semiconductor Self-Reliance

India has created its first homegrown microprocessor called DHRUV64.

This is a big deal because it means India can now make its own computer chips instead of buying them from other countries.

DHRUV64 is like the brain of electronic devices and can be used in many things like smartphones, cars, and even satellites.

This new chip is part of India's plan to become self-reliant in technology.

The government is also supporting this effort with different programs to help startups and researchers.

Additionally, India has started making commercial chips in its new semiconductor plants, which is another step towards building a strong electronics industry.
