🔹Bharat imports 60% of its graphite needs, a critical EV battery component.
🔹China dominates the global supply of rare earths and critical minerals, using export restrictions as leverage.
🔹Without domestic production, 🇮🇳 risks being trapped in supply chain vulnerabilities that choke innovation and defence readiness.

- Lithium, tungsten, niobium, and rare earths hidden in these mineral blocks are the backbone of clean energy, defence tech, and digital infrastructure.
- Whoever controls them controls the future of EVs, semiconductors, satellites, and missiles.

🚨 🇮🇳 Problems: Heavy import dependency (esp. graphite, lithium). Slow domestic exploration and auction processes.

🚀 If executed well, this mineral strategy could transform 🇮🇳 into a global hub for clean tech, defence innovation, and industrial resilience. From EV batteries to satellites, India’s destiny is being mined today.
