Gurugram, September 22

In a bid to boost the export industry in Haryana, the state government will set up an Export Promotion Bureau to provide institutional support to exporters.

The director-general at the Industries and Commerce Department, Dr Saket Kumar, shared this information at the inauguration of the ‘Vanijya Utsav’ being organised in Gurugram from today.

This state-level utsav is being organised by the Department of Industries and Commerce and the Apparel Export Promotion Council working under the Ministry of Textiles of the Central Government on the occasion of Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav.

Inviting exporters present on the occasion to visit the state, Dr Kumar said not only incentives were being given to entrepreneurs and exporters in Haryana but business environment, linkages and other government facilities were also being provided. He said a district-level export promotion committee had been constituted in every district of the state to facilitate exports. Similarly, a trade promotion committee had also been constituted at state level to review all types of trade-related issues. Dr Kumar said Haryana was a fast growing economy with an export value of Rs 1,74,572 crore in 2020-21. The utsav is being organised from September 21-26 in 739 districts of the country to showcase India’s 75 years of economic progress.
