Speaking on the government's policies, he said, FDI liberalisation has substantially been achieved in India except for a few strategic sectors.
«We've tried to maintain an almost Open Sky policy for almost all sectors of the economy.
Though that liberalisation will continue and we may expand it further to even some of our sectors like Space as well.
The Secretary said, India is also focusing on improving ease of doing business and ease of logistics and in both of these India's „global ranking is on an upswing“.
