We are proud to lead India and impact the global arena,&#8221; the Minister said. <\/p>\n<p>He said R&amp;D is the catalyst for growth, innovation and sustainable progress. <\/p>\n<p>It is imperative for any government to encourage constant research and development in the field of <a data-ga-onclick=\"Inarticle articleshow link click#News#href\" href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/topic\/science-and-technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">science and technology<\/a>, especially in the startup, engineering and medical ecosystems, he said. &#8220;Karnataka is the leader in probably every sector that you want to see. A lot of people think that these things have happened overnight. No, the Karnataka ecosystem or the Bangalore ecosystem has been nurtured over three decades now,&#8221; Kharge stressed. Karnataka also has 80 medical colleges and 1777 public and private industrial training institutions, he said. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are producing the highest number of graduates for the workforce not only for the Indian market, but also for the global workforce. We did not get to be the world&#8217;s fourth largest technology cluster overnight. We have moved from being the call centre of the world, the IT services of the world to now being the R&amp;D (hub of the world)&#8230;..,&#8221; Kharge said.<!--\/article_liveblog.cms?msid=105115637&pos=botpotime:1--><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/news\/india\/karnataka-contributes-22-to-global-rd-says-it-minister-priyank-kharge\/articleshow\/111113706.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Karnataka IT Minister Priyank Kharge on Wednesday said the state is at the forefront of innovation, contributing 22 per cent to global R&amp;D, and is leading in areas such as technology services.
