Model Answer

Self-sufficiency alone is not enough because in the era of globalisation, Indian industry must also be efficient and competitive. The additional condition is that India's manufactured goods must be at par in quality with those in the international market. Only then can India compete globally and expand trade.

Explanation

The passage directly states: "Self-sufficiency alone is not enough. Our manufactured goods must be at par in quality with those in the international market." Examiners look for two specific points: (1) the limitation of self-sufficiency in a globalised world, and (2) the need for quality/competitiveness matching international standards. Use the textbook's exact phrasing where possible.
