Genuine rational single window is key for ease of doing business in country: Commerce Minister
Sep-06-2024

Recognizing the outstanding work of States and UTs in enhancing the ease of doing business, Union Minister of Commerce & Industry, Piyush Goyal has said that a genuine rational single window is key for ease of doing business in the country. He said that if all States and Union Territories (UTs) come to one platform for approvals and facilities, it would attract global investment in each state. Goyal said that approvals to industries in states should be time bound and should be easy. He said ‘We are experimenting with a system whereby people should not need to come to government offices for approvals and compliances.’ He said that Centre and States can work together in all sectors and push towards greater employment opportunities.

The Minister noted that many states have shared their best practices and stated that healthy competition and collaboration is key to the progress of the nation. Orissa has reformed its mines sector, UP has started promoting investment, Maharashtra is attracting FDI by improving infrastructure, Sikkim is adding value to the organic farming. He said that each state should study the industry policies of other states and try to improve themselves, adding that Rajasthan can teach other states on ways to improve their policies to make themselves more attractive to tourism.

Minister of Commerce & Industry further said that the government is making sincere efforts to promote India as the investment destination for the world and attract Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) across different States and UTs. He said ‘The Union Government has created a level playing field for all the States and UTs to attract FDI. The investments coming from abroad are going to different states and each of them is beneficiary of our efforts to attract FDI’.
