New initiatives have been a pivotal go-to-step for the government, including the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme and steps to solve the container situations at the ports. State-level focused policies such as the UP’s Export Policy will boost exports.

The need of the hour is calling for better resilience, optimism, and outlook. A collaborative approach between countries, governments, and local businesses could be resulting in a differentiated win, which we all have been longing for weeks.
