(3) Export promotion and facilitation with key emphasize on
e-commerce,

It was reported that these Groups were asked to submit their Reports
within a period of two months. However, due to the dissolution of 16th Lok Sa-
bha and thereafter General Elections, no status update has been reported. It is
expected that the Central Government along with the stakeholder’s comments,
will also have a look at the said Committees’ works and consider their sugges-
tions, if any, suitably. Since Central Government’s serious track record in im-
proving the ‘Ease of Business in India, trade, Industry and other stakeholders can
positively look forward such necessary actions and ground breaking measures to
boost its Exim regime and turn our economy as a developed one/to improve up-
on its 50th rank in the World Bank’s Ease of Doing Business, if not in 2022, then
in a near future. Before parting, would like to state an old Tamil verse, ‘Kalanga-
thu Kanda Vinaikkan Thulangkathu Thookkang Kadinthu Seyal’ i.e. what clearly eye
discerns as right, with steadfast will and mind without slumber, that should man
fulfil – Thirukural.
