The Bharatiya Janata Party government in Rajasthan is set to promote the stone sector through a single window clearance system following the approval of business proposals worth ₹2,981 crore at the 12th edition of ‘India Stonemart-2024’, which ended here on Sunday. The four-day event is expected to create a better business environment for stone sector in the State.
The State government’s Centre for Development of Stones (CDoS) organised the Stonemart to promote and support the dimensional stone and allied industry. The CDoS has been holding international exhibitions, buyer-seller meets, training programmes, and testing of stones for encouraging trade in the stone sector.
Industries Minister Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore said here that the State government would take all possible steps to remove hurdles and attract investments for creating a better trade infrastructure, as the stones of Rajasthan enjoyed a “unique identity” in the world. “Whether we live or not, the stones will always be there,” he said.
