The Government of India need to take an initiative on robotics. Here is an example from National Science Foundation (NSF), USA
The goal of the National Robotics Initiative is to accelerate the
development and use of robots in the United States that work beside, or
cooperatively with, people. Innovative robotics research and
applications emphasizing the realization of such co-robots acting in
direct support of and in a symbiotic relationship with human partners is
supported by multiple agencies of the federal government including the
National Science Foundation (NSF), the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the
U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The purpose of this program is
the development of this next generation of robotics, to advance the
capability and usability of such systems and artifacts, and to encourage
existing and new communities to focus on innovative application areas.
It will address the entire life cycle from fundamental research and
development to industry manufacturing and deployment. Methods for the
establishment and infusion of robotics in educational curricula and
research to gain a better understanding of the long term social,
behavioral and economic implications of co-robots across all areas of
human activity are important parts of this initiative. Collaboration
between academic, industry, non-profit and other organizations is
strongly encouraged to establish better linkages between fundamental
science and technology development, deployment and use.
