Railways and commerce minister Piyush Goyal is of the opinion that the revival of global trade, severely impacted by Covid-19, will take some time.
According to Piyush Goyal, in terms of the government, some very, very long-pending issues [have been take up] such as the abrogation of Articles 370 and 35A of Kashmir. The court in the same period solved the Ram Mandir issue. [Other milestones are] the triple talaq law and the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill.
Minister said that the government started the process of transformational policy change — like coal mining, which was finalised in the Atmanirbhar Bharat package and also approved by the Cabinet… In this whole period, the focus has been on a number of initiatives that would strengthen India in the long term, and present opportunities for people in agriculture, food processing, fishing, mining…
Goyal said that government is quite focused, as one can saw from the Rs 20-lakh-crore Atmanirbhar Bharat package. It’s not about giving a short-term solution but to prepare India for the medium and long term.
