Commerce Secretary Shri S R Rao said that we need to address the issues of the infrastructure sector that “affects our exports and import performance”. He said that the comments and suggestions of the industrialists and representatives of various export promotion councils are “Bible for us in the Ministry of Commerce” for shaping the Foreign Trade Policy.

Shri Sharma also discussed the major challenges to be looked into as the preparation for the Foreign Trade Policy goes underway. “The first challenge is to reach out to newer markets, while consolidating hold in existing markets. Second is the challenge of giving a greater thrust to high value added manufacturing and technology intensive manufacturing which will have appeal in the global market places,” said Shri Sharma.
