New Delhi: Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal on Tuesday said the ongoing global challenges should act as a wake-up call for domestic industry to become self-efficient and productive, make better use of free trade agreements, and reduce dependence on imports to strengthen the economy.
He said the world is going through a challenging time as the war in West Asia has certainly disrupted global trade and investment flows, but in these "trying times", India has a great opportunity to outshine others.
