CTA Apparels Applauds Government’s Holistic Push for Textile Export Growth
Dr. Mukesh Kansal, Chairman of CTA Apparels, welcomed the Government of India’s initiative to convene the first meeting of the Task Force on Textiles Exports, led by Commerce Secretary Shri Sunil Barthwal. He described it as a strategic and much-needed step towards strengthening India’s position in the global textile market.
Dr. Kansal highlighted the significance of creating a unified platform that enables industry-wide stakeholder dialogue to effectively address sectoral challenges. The comprehensive scope of topics discussed during the meeting—ranging from ESG-compliant infrastructure and renewable energy to e-commerce, policy reform, skilling, and MSME support—demonstrates the government’s deep understanding of the evolving textile value chain and international benchmarks.
He particularly praised the decision to establish issue-specific sub-task forces, calling it a critical move to drive targeted, solution-oriented policymaking. For CTA Apparels, this initiative is a key opportunity to harmonize industry objectives with India’s ambitious export target of USD 100 billion and the broader Viksit Bharat Vision 2047.
Dr. Kansal concluded by reaffirming CTA Apparels’ commitment to sustainable practices, global competitiveness, and collaborative growth, expressing pride in contributing to the evolving future of Indian textiles.
