Addressing the inaugural session of the ‘India-Bangladesh Stakeholder’s Meet’ organised by the Indian Chamber of Commerce, Goyal said improving connectivity further is imperative for expansion of bilateral trade and realisation of the investment potential of Bangladesh and eastern India.
The potential areas of investment include active pharmaceutical ingredients, medical equipment, digital health and education services, agribusiness, electronics and renewable energy.
