FTA awareness workshops to be organised in all divisions of the state
Chhattisgarh Government will establish a dedicated FTA Accelerator, an FTA Helpdesk and a bilingual FTA Guidebook in Hindi and English to help exporters in the state derive maximum benefit from India’s Free Trade Agreements (FTAs). In addition, FTA awareness workshops will be organised in every division of the state. Commerce and Industries Minister Shri Lakhan Lal Dewangan made this announcement today while addressing a state-level workshop organised in Raipur jointly by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), Department of Commerce, Government of India, and the Commerce and Industries Department, Government of Chhattisgarh.
Around 300 exporters from various parts of Chhattisgarh participated in the workshop, along with officials from the Central and state governments and representatives of Export Promotion Councils. The workshop aimed to familiarise exporters with the new opportunities emerging from India’s recently concluded Free Trade Agreements and encourage them to maximise the benefits of these agreements through sector-specific strategies for different products.
