The Chief Guest of ISA Vision Summit 2012, Hon'ble Minister for HRD, Communications & IT, Government of India, Shri Kapil Sibal has claimed that Aakash Tablets will be free in the hands of every student in India. Shri Sibal further added that based on the feedback from Aakash , they would be launching Aakash 2 which is a much better, faster and more efficient version of the Aakash that was launched.

In his speech Shri Sibal said, "Today Electronics is the largest and fastest growing manufacturing industry in the world. Current global hardware production is around $ US 1.75 trillion and by 2020 it is going to grow upto $ US 2.4 trillion. On the domestic front, electronic driven industry has emerged as the contributor to national economy."

"We can develop semiconductor manufacturing in India since we have the chip design services available here and enormous high quality human resource. We should be able to leverage that to ensure that we can develop the semiconductor manufacturing sector in India,"added Shri Sibal.
