Today’s “Word of the Day” is autarkic and it is an adjective meaning “(economically) self-reliant, self-sufficient, independent“.
Example Sentence: The push for self-reliance through ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ is not an autarkic policy. It does not imply foreclosure (bar/prohibition) of the Indian economy to foreign trade and participation in the global economy. On the contrary, it is aimed at strengthening India’s capacities to participate more vigorously without being prey to supply chain disruptions.
