Afghanistan’s Minister of Industry and Commerce, Nooruddin Azizi, continued his official visit to India by touring the Pragati Maidan International Trade Exhibition in New Delhi.

Afghan traders expressed satisfaction with the increasing trade opportunities available in India. They also pointed out several challenges that affect their operations, including issues related to banking, customs procedures, and regulatory frameworks. Minister Azizi assured the traders that these concerns would be communicated to Indian authorities and that the Ministry would work toward practical solutions.

In another meeting, Minister Azizi discussed matters with the leadership of the India Trade Promotion Organisation (ITPO), which organizes the exhibition. The discussions centered on ways to expand trade cooperation, including securing a dedicated pavilion for Afghan companies at future events, easing visa processes for Afghan participants, and arranging joint Afghanistan–India trade exhibitions in both New Delhi and Kabul.

These engagements represent part of the Islamic Emirate’s initiatives to enhance Afghanistan’s commercial presence in regional markets and to increase economic cooperation with India.
