Indian Companies Must Invest in R&D: Environment Minister
The Environment Minister of India, Anil Madhav Dave, said today that companies must invest a part of their income into research & development (R&D) and do some out-of-the-box thinking.
“If money can be invested into Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), money should also be invested into research to develop unique products that can be used in the future,” the Minister added.
