While inaugurating the 68th India International Garment Fair (IIGF), she said that India is the second largest textile and clothing exporter in the world.
She appealed to the apparel manufacturers and exporters to emphasise innovation and quality by matching the latest fashion trends and assured all sorts of support from the government for the development and expansion of the apparel industry.
