“All central ministries and departments were requested to share suggestions on the planned sessions of World Food India and participate in the event activities as well as support the ministry in awareness creation,” it said.
As per the statement, the Investment Facilitation Cell (Invest India) and the event partner (FICCI) have been instructed to liaise with the respective ministries to facilitate coordination for the event.
The statement added that the subsequent inter-ministerial committee meeting is anticipated to take place in June 2023 with the objective of finalizing solid partnerships and the participation of various stakeholders.
