In order to strengthen the export facilitation mechanism, the Yogi Adityanath government will soon be developing ‘Niryaat Sarathi’ app which will provide every information related to export of goods at one click.
“Export is one of the strong pillars of the economy and is the chief contributor to development. The ‘Niryaat Sarathi’ app will be a high-tech one-click solution to get all information related to the export of goods. It will be an efficient platform for sellers to conduct business smoothly,” a government spokesman said here on Saturday.
He said for small and medium sector enterprises, making their products reach across national boundaries is a dream. The state government has been taking a lot of initiatives to boost the exports of MSMEs and small businesses. The app will sensitise and create awareness among the exporters of the state.
The government is also planning to simplify all export-related schemes so as to benefit the exporters in the state.
It is worth mentioning here that Uttar Pradesh exports have almost doubled in the last five years from Rs 88,967 crore in 2017-18 to more than Rs 1.50 lakh crore in 2021-22.
The ODOP schemes constitute about 72 per cent of the total exports from UP.
The initiatives include setting up of six MSME parks across the state, a mega leather cluster in Kanpur and increasing the disbursal of credit to MSME sector to Rs 5 lakh crore in cooperation with banks, which will pave the way for creation of 5 crore jobs.
