New Delhi, July 2: In a significant boost to India’s agricultural exports, fresh litchis from Punjab have been exported to Oman for the first time, Union Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal said on Thursday.
The milestone marks an important step in expanding the global reach of Indian horticultural products and strengthening India’s presence in international fruit markets. Officials said the export reflects improved supply chain efficiency, quality standards, and growing global demand for Indian produce.
The initiative is expected to benefit farmers in Punjab by opening new export opportunities and enhancing income prospects through access to overseas markets.
The government has been focusing on promoting agricultural exports through better logistics, compliance with international standards, and strengthening trade partnerships with importing countries.
