Dear Forumites
The 36th Edition of the EPIC Magazine is here!
The Focus Article of this Edition covers India’s Foreign Trade Policy 2023. The Policy has been declared after a significant delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic followed by the Russia-Ukraine War and associated geopolitical uncertainties. The Policy has underlined several measures to enhance exports with a focus on trade facilitation measures, process reforms and support to the MSMEs. However, critics argue that the Policy lacks a holistic approach towards trade. The Government should develop a long-term strategy to integrate India’s domestic Manufacturing and Services Industries with Global Value Chains (GVCs). We have provided a detailed analysis of the current status of India’s Merchandise and Services exports, the expected benefits and the shortcomings of the policy.
Other key articles covered in this edition include Revision of NCERT textbooks, Groundwater Usage and Governance, India Justice Report 2022, Criminal Defamation, IT Amendment Rules 2023, India-Bhutan Relationship, Performance of the PM Mudra Yojana, De-dollarisation of International Trade, and Tiger Census among others
