PM Narendra Modi inaugurates India’s first toy fair

Prime Minister Narendra Modi Saturday inaugurated India’s first toy fair 2021 via video conference. While launching the event, the PM urged people to become atmanirbhar in the toy-making sector.

Modi asked the toy manufacturers to use less plastic and more eco-friendly material, at the same time focusing on innovation. He said that India’s share in the USD 100 billion global toy market is very less, and about 85 per cent of the toys sold in the country are imported.

He also pointed out how toys help children develop scientific temperament. PM Modi said the Centre has made a National Toy Action Plan by including 15 ministries to make the domestic toy industry competitive.
