Stating that a majority of goods were exported to a few select countries,
Tamilnadu Chief Minister added , “We say Made in India in every nook and cranny of the world. Likewise, the idea of Made in Tamil Nadu should echo across the globe. It is not just my desire, but our goal. The path of our government would be in achieving that goal.”
Recalling the one trillion US dollar economy target set for the State before 2030,
Stalin said, “To achieve the one trillion US $ economy, our exports should be increased from existing 26 billion US $ to 100 billion US $ before 2030.”

Adding that industrial growth was not the growth of a sector, but the overall growth of the State and the country, Stalin said, “Growth of the industrial sector means every sector is growing,” asking officials to organise more such conclaves in the State, especially in districts other than Chennai.
