Kalraj Mishra Lists Achievements of Ministry of MSME
Kalraj Mishra, Union Minister for MSME recently said that one of the main changes which has been brought by him in the Ministry is the transparency and accountability in implementation of Schemes. Almost every Scheme of the Ministry has been put on the web.
Grievances are also being monitored through the web. Efforts are being made to bring even the MSME Census online. Mr. Mishra further said this while inter-acting with the media on the achievements of the Ministry in the last two years.
Khadi sales:
Kalraj Mishra thanked Prime Minister for taking up the Schemes like MUDRA and Stand Up India which have increased the number of MSMEs significantly. He also thanked Prime Minister for promoting Khadi through 'MANN KI BAAT' which has resulted in a record production and sale of Khadi.

Coir exports:
Even Coir exports have surpassed a record of Rs.1900 crores during the year 2015-16 which was only around Rs.1400 crores during 2013-14.
Ease of doing business:
Another aspect of the working of the Ministry was to participate in ease of doing business in which Udyog Aadhaar Memorandum (UAM) was launched in September, 2015. The success of the same can be got from the fact that about 8 lakh registrations have already been done in the last 8 ½ months, while, registration during the 67 years of independence was only around 22 lakhs.
