MSME promotion programme launched in North Eastern Region-Sikkim
Manipur will emerge as a premier gateway to the 665 million people strong markets in the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) because of the Central and State Governments’ combined efforts, according to Minister for of Micro, Small, & Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), Narayan Rane.
