    Very pleased to read the comments pertaining to advancement of Indian technology added with the growth in Indian Exports. Export of Indian products bring multitude of advantages for India, not only in foreign exchange but also in job creation.

    May our factories remain occupied with production of quality products for export market, may our ships and aeroplanes be filled with Indian goods for global consumption, and may Indian technology bring new opportunities for technology transfers to many foreign countries so that our Indian entrepreneurship may spread to many parts of the developed and developing world for a global progress and prosperity.

    Consistency in our global philosophy for exports added with quality, reliability and integrity are the key words for continuous success of Indian products and image of Indian people.
