The conversation around building a truly self-reliant India often focuses on technology and manufacturing. But what if the very structures we live and work in could embody this vision? In the latest episode of ‘Baat Bharat Ki’, we sit down with Deepak Rai, the visionary founder and managing director of BOOTES, India’s first net-zero construction company.
Deepak’s work is a masterclass in blending global insights with traditional Indian architecture to create off-grid, sustainable infrastructure. His groundbreaking Jhansi Library project stands as a powerful example of this approach. Completed in a record 90 days, this landmark building generates all its own energy, cuts carbon emissions by 85%, and produces zero waste, earning it a place in the Asia Book of Records.
His mission extends beyond construction; it’s about a new blueprint for a self-sustaining nation. By championing decentralized, net-zero solutions, he proves that a low-carbon, self-reliant future is not a distant dream but an achievable reality for India. Join us as he discusses how his work is shaping a truly Aatmanirbhar Bharat.
