Narendra Modi government has shifted focus to accelerate economic activities. Lockdown has been going on in the entire country since 25 March, due to which the economy has got a huge shock. The train of development seems to be stalling due to the stagnation of economic activity. In such a situation, Prime Minister Narendra Modi held an important meeting to woo foreign investors and accelerate domestic investment in order to revive the country’s economy.
Clearance process should be easy
In the meeting, the PM said that special care should be taken to ensure that investors do not face any problem. They do not have any problem regarding clearance at the central and state level and the time taken in this process should be reduced. It was discussed in the meeting that a scheme should be developed and provide necessary financial support to promote the existing industrial land/plot/estate infrastructure in the country.
