In a meeting with representatives from 35 Export Promotion Councils (EPCs) and key industry associations, Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal has urged exporters and industry bodies to fully utilize the series of Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) signed with developed countries with an aim to maximise job creation and boost exports of goods and services.
He emphasized that industry must now intensify its efforts to penetrate new markets, upgrade quality and become more competitive to take maximum advantage of trade agreements. He said the government had signed FTAs with developed countries, including the UK and EU, to help India's farmers, workers, professionals, artisans and MSMEs take advantage of the global market with preferential access. With these trade agreements, India's traditional medicines and yoga will also get global opportunities, while the interest of India's agriculture and dairy sectors have been protected.
He said India has made its mark in international trade since the ancient era. He said ‘our trade deals will accelerate our Viksit Bharat mission and carry forward Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s mantra of Vikas bhi, Virasat bhi.’ He reaffirmed the government’s commitment to accelerate export growth, deepen global integration and leverage new trade agreements to position India as a trusted global supply partner.
