Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Friday came out with a slew of fiscal measures along with regulatory reforms to revive the agriculture and allied sectors under the mega Rs 20 lakh-crore economic package for the ”Self-reliant India Movement” announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently.
The minister detailed eight unique steps backed by fiscal support to build local brands, cold-chain and warehousing infrastructure and promote animal husbandry and fisheries in the country.
Not just fiscal measures, three more measures dealing with regulatory reforms among others will also be carried out, Sitharaman said.
