Union Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal said that 2 lakh crores procurement by the Government within a single financial year 2022-2023 through the Government e-Marketplace truly reflects the thinking of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is very demanding that Government has to be run with the highest integrity and transparency in participation by all across the country in government procurement.
He further said the Prime Minister has always urged for our women entrepreneurs, startups, and MSME sector to be able to participate fairly and equitably in Government procurement.
The Government e-Market – GeM portal was launched on the 9th of August, 2016, for online purchases of goods and services by all the Central Government Ministries and Departments.
