Inviting global investors, he said, 'Come and invest in India - Make in India, Make for the World'.

On the sidelines of Heimtextil, the Minister also met with the Machinery and Equipment Manufacturers Association and IVGT, Germany. HMoT urged them to strengthen their engagement with India's textile sector, emphasizing that India is one of the largest textile machinery buyers.
