The Minister said new markets were being explored aggressively to enhance the reach of Indian products globally. India is strengthening the entire ecosystem to achieve Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s dream of becoming a $5 trillion economy by 2025 through rapid structural reforms, Union Minister Piyush Goyal said on January 9.
Addressing the Pravasi Bharatiya Diwas conference, the Commerce and Industry Minister said: “We are working simultaneously to bring about a quantum leap in our quality, in our productivity, in our efficiency, so that Indian Industry can truly expand our export basket, making it bigger, better and broader.”
Union Minister Piyush Goyal on Wednesday said he looks positively at the ongoing discussions with farmer unions as an opportunity to explain to them the benefits from the new laws against which they are protesting. Goyal along with Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar and Minister of State for Commerce Som Parkash is holding talks with around 40 unions to break the deadlock over farmers protest against the three new farm laws. Addressing the 74th foundation day of Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), Food and Consumer Affairs Minister Goyal said there are always different points of view to look at things and cited theexample of the discussions with unions, which he said can be seen both as a problem or as an opportunity.
