The discovery of biggest Lithium deposits in the foothills of Mata Vaishnodevi in Jammu and Kashmir’s Reasi district is going to be a historic milestone in AtmaNirbhar Bharat, Union minister Arjun Ram Meghwal said on Sunday.
The Minister said that Lithium deposits will not only give fillip and boost to the industrial sector in India but will give further push to the country to become ‘Vishwa Guru’ under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Meghwal was speaking to investors and industrialists at a conclave organised by Laghu Udhyog Bharati here on Sunday.
“Go to any showroom, you will now get electric vehicles. One can get it fast. But there was a problem. It can run on a Lithium-based battery.
