Hindustan Times Delhi
|September 09, 2025
President Droupadi Murmu on Monday said the challenges of global trade need to be turned into opportunities by utilising the exceptional capabilities available in the country and making India a global innovation centre.
“Experts of the global economy and trade discuss innovation economies and catch-up economies. Innovation economies are the most competitive and prosperous economies in the world,” she said at the platinum jubilee celebrations of the Engineering Export Promotion Council (EEPC) in New Delhi.
She urged EEPC to continuously expand India’s role in the global value chain and emphasised its necessity because of changes taking place in the world trade order and the international economy. EEPC is a trade and investment promotion organisation sponsored by the ministry of commerce and industry. Exports of India’s engineering goods jumped from a meagre $10 million in 1955 to $116.67 billion in FY25.
