The Commerce Ministry plans to train about 1,000 people in regional languages to guide existing and new exporters at district and state levels, Piyush Goyal said. He also wants integrated commerce and industry offices in major cities, so businesses get one access point instead of visiting many departments.

Key Statutory Highlights
