China's Supply Chain Curbs Challenge India's Electronics Manufacturing Growth

The measures could disrupt supply chain stability, investments, and export growth, impacting global brands like Apple and domestic firms. India's electronics industry has sought urgent government assistance, with officials acknowledging the issue and considering inter-ministerial consultations amid ongoing reliance on Chinese components and equipment.
