PM's semiconductor chip announcement gets Jairam Ramesh's pathological liar reply
Congress MP and general secretary in charge of communications Jairam Ramesh on Friday responded to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's remarks on semiconductors in his Independence Day speech by calling him a 'pathological liar'. The Congress MP pointed out that the Semiconductors Complex Ltd in Chandigarh had already begun operations in 1983, contradicting the Prime Minister's claim that India lost 50 to 60 years in developing semiconductor Ramesh made the remarks in a post on X while responding to PM Modi's Independence Day speech from the Red Fort. 'One more example of what a pathological liar Mr. Modi is. Semiconductors Complex Ltd established in Chandigarh started operations in 1983,' Jairam Ramesh said in a post while replying to a video of PM Modi's speech. In his address, the Prime Minister said that while the idea of setting up semiconductor manufacturing plants was discussed 50-60 years ago, it never materialised, claiming that early efforts to establish a semiconductor factory were stopped before they could take shape."I am not at the Red Fort to criticise any government; I do not want to do it. But the youth of the country should know about it. File work on semiconductors began 50-60 years ago in our country. The idea of semiconductor factory came forth 50-60 years ago. You would be surprised to know that the idea of semiconductor was killed in the womb 50-60 years ago. We lost 50-60 years," PM Modi said while addressing the nation from the Red Fort. Meanwhile, PM Modi announced that India is set to launch its own semiconductor chips by the end of 2025. He said the country is now working in 'mission mode' to advance semiconductor manufacturing."We are working on semiconductors on Mission the end of this year, Made in India semiconductor chips, made by the people in India, will hit the market," he said in his Prime Minister called the 21st century a 'technology-driven century', adding that nations which lead in technology will achieve greater the Congress general secretary in charge of communications on Thursday had also accused the Modi government of showing bias against opposition-ruled states in the approval and allocation of semiconductor manufacturing Ramesh, said that while the Centre has approved four semiconductor projects, several proposals linked to non-BJP states were either redirected or approved a post on X, Ramesh said that a major private company's application for a project in Telangana was approved only on the condition that it be relocated to Andhra further alleged that two other proposed projects were moved from Telangana to Gujarat and another factory initially planned for Tamil Nadu received clearance only after agreeing to shift to earlier similar transfer of locations were forced through. Two semiconductor manufacturing projects were compelled to shift their proposed location from Telangana to Gujarat. Similarly, another factory planned for Tamil Nadu got approval on the condition that it shifts to Gujarat," Ramesh claimed."Need anything more be said? The PM speaks of competition among states that will make India strong. But if the umpire is so blatantly biased, the competition becomes a farce," the Congress leader said.- EndsMust Watch IN THIS STORY#Narendra Modi#Nationalist Congress Party

Intel, Lockheed Martin among companies investing in India's semiconductor push
NEW DELHI: Strengthening India's efforts in attaining self-sufficiency in the critical semiconductor segment, the Union Cabinet on Tuesday approved four semiconductor projects, entailing a total investment of Rs 4,594 crore, with one of them being backed by US chipmaker Intel as well as defence and aerospace manufacturer Lockheed Martin. The projects will come up in Odisha, Punjab and Andhra Pradesh, IT & Electronics Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said. The proposals were approved under the India Semiconductor Mission, which initially started the country's semiconductor manufacturing push with an outlay of Rs 76,000 crore to provide financial support for those setting up chip manufacturing facilities. 'This is a new industry that we have started in India, and we were able to make a breakthrough after trying for decades previously. We will build upon this. The demand for semiconductors is building up every month, every day. And the way these projects are being set up and are scaling up, I think we will be able to have significant production in our country as part of the Atmanirbhar Bharat programme. To me, it appears that this is just the beginning,' Vaishnaw said while briefing about the new projects and also those that started previously. The minister said that a silicon carbide semiconductor plant will be set up in Bhubaneswar with an investment of Rs 2,066 crore by SiCsem Pvt Ltd. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like NRIs Living In Ukraine Are Eligible For INR 2 Lakh Monthly Pension.

Silicon carbide is used in our missiles, satellites, telecom towers, rockets, railway engines, etc.' The plant will have a capacity to produce 9.6 crore chips per year. The Cabinet also approved US chip major Intel-backed 3D Glass semiconductor manufacturing unit in Odisha with an investment of Rs 1,943 crore. The plant will be set up by Heterogenous Integration Packaging Solutions with an annual production capacity of five crore units. Vaishnaw said the project will be backed by US firm Lockheed Martin as well. It is understood that the two American companies have invested in the project for sourcing the production, and also as part of their financial investment plans. A chip packaging plant in Andhra Pradesh, to be set up by Advanced System in Package Technologies with an investment of Rs 468 crore, was also approved by the Cabinet. It will have a capacity to produce 9.6 crore chips per year. The cabinet also cleared a semiconductor project of electronics component maker firm CDIL. The facility will be set up in Punjab with an investment of Rs 117 crore, having an annual production capacity of 15.8 crore units. Vaishnaw said the plans for semiconductor come at a time when the country's electronics manufacturing sector has grown six times to Rs 12 lakh crore in the last 11 years. Exports of electronics has grown eight times in the same period to Rs 3.3 lakh crore and mobile production has increased 28 times to Rs 5.5 lakh crore. The minister said India will host Semicon India 2025 in partnership with four countries-- Singapore, Malaysia, Japan and Korea from September 2 to 4. There has been considerable success in development of semiconductor ecosystem in India after the central govt had come up with a Rs 76,000 crore incentive package in December 2021. Under the plan, govt had extended fiscal support of up to 50% of a project's cost to eligible display and semiconductor fabricators. India – which had previously failed to get any credible proposals for semiconductor manufacturing after trying for decades – had finally managed to score big when American Micron emerged as the first major player to enter the space with a Rs 22,500 crore testing and packaging unit in Gujarat in June 2023. This was followed up with approval to three proposals worth Rs 1.26 lakh crore in February 2024. These were -- Rs 91,000 crore project of Tata Electronics Pvt Ltd to set up India's first semiconductor fab unit with Taiwanese Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp at Dholera in Gujarat; Rs 27,000 crore Semiconductor Assembly and Test (TSAT) unit by Tata in Morigaon, Assam; and Rs 7,600 crore project of CG Power with Japanese Renesas Electronics and Stars Microelectronics of Thailand.

IIT-BHU study validates fairness of Random Number Generators in online card games
IIT Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, has confirmed through an independent study that Random Number Generators (RNGs) used in online card games meet high statistical fairness by Dr Bhaskar Biswas, Professor and Head of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, the research applied internationally accepted methodologies to evaluate the randomness and integrity of card shuffling non-Personally Identifiable Information gameplay data from RummyCulture, the study examined both 53-card and 106-card formats over a three-month TESTING USING DIEHARDER SUITE The team used the globally recognised 'Dieharder' statistical test suite, a benchmark for RNG quality, to assess thousands of card distribution tests evaluated multiple aspects of randomness, including uniformity, independence and findings showed that RNGs passed 97.34% of all Dieharder tests for 53-card games and 98.25% for 106-card games.P-value distributions were largely uniform in both cases, with only minimal clustering at the edges, which is consistent with theoretical expectations.'These results demonstrate a high level of statistical conformity and provide reassurance about the robustness of RNG implementations in digital card games,' said Dr Biswas. 'In games such as online rummy, the underlying randomness must be beyond reproach.'FIRST ACADEMIC VALIDATION OF REAL-WORLD RNG DATAThis is the first time in the skill-based Real Money Gaming and wider global gaming industry that an independent academic body has analysed actual gameplay RNG IIT-BHU team conducted multiple Dieharder tests, such as the Birthday Spacing Test, Bitstream and Rank Tests, Parking Lot and Minimum Distance Tests, and DNA and OPSO/OQSO results consistently confirmed no detectable bias or predictability in RNG AND INDUSTRY SIGNIFICANCEThe report highlights the regulatory importance of these findings. RNGs in digital gaming are subject to audits under standards like NIST and the British Remote Technical IIT-BHU study confirms that the tested systems meet these which previously earned RNG certifications from iTech Labs (ISO 17025 certified), sees the study as a reaffirmation of its commitment to fair to the platform, such independent validations help maintain ethical standards, boost player trust, and ensure sustainable growth for the online gaming industry.- Ends
