Apr 27, 2022

Stressing the need for frequent interaction between the government and exporters, Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu on Monday urged the Centre to remove all obstacles on exports from time to time to enable the country reap the benefits.
 
'The government must be alive to the problems and challenges faced by the exporters and industry by trying to understand and address it. There should not be any delays on account of indecision, inaction by anybody and this is the need of the hour,' Naidu said, while addressing the gathering after presenting the Export Excellence Awards for 2019-20 at MEPZ, Tambaram near the here.
 
He said foreign exchange inflow is very essential for any country to have a strong economy. If exports get reduced, the foreign exchange reserves will shrink and might eventually affect the country’s economy.
 
Naidu further said the ministry of commerce and industry is taking all steps to find new avenues for exports and the friendly policies of the government really helps. 'The government and exporters must have frequent interaction to understand the problems, if any. All obstacles in the way of exports should be removed by the government from time to time,' he said.
 
Lauding that Tamil Nadu continues to be a national leader in exports of automobiles and automotive components, leather products, software, and ready-made garments, he said, MEPZ has recorded an export growth of 14% in 2021-22 with total exports to the tune of Rs 1,32,803 crore despite the problems caused by the pandemic.
In her address, Union minister of state for commerce and industry Anupriya Patel urged the exporters to utilise the Free Trade Agreement between India and UAE as well as with Australia. There is tremendous scope in the global supply chain, she added.
