Quick Summary:

Union Textiles Minister Giriraj Singh on Friday expressed confidence that the niche carbon fibre -- which is used in aerospace, civil engineering and defence as an alternative to metal -- will be produced by India in 2025-26.

I am fully confident that in 2025-26 the niche carbon fibre product will also be with India," Singh told reporters here.
