In a major move towards a more citizen and business-friendly administration, Union Minister for Commerce and Industry, Shri Piyush Goyal, has unveiled a grand vision to co-locate all the various arms and offices of the Ministry into a single, integrated central hub in Mumbai today.
Shri Goyal stated that the initiative aligns directly with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of ‘Ease of Living’ and ‘Ease of Doing Business.’ He emphasized that India’s 140 crore citizens should find it comfortable, easy, and seamless whenever they need to interface or work with the government.
Reviewing the working of all Ministry offices in Mumbai, the Union Minister noted that in Mumbai alone, there are 20 offices of 12 different organizations scattered across various locations, occupying lakhs of square feet of premium space worth hundreds of crores of rupees. Under the new plan, Shri Goyal announced that the Ministry will bring all these offices together wherever feasible to converge at one single, integrated point. This centralized facility will be equipped with high-quality audio-visual infrastructure, connecting stakeholders to 46 different organizations under the Ministry. Even organizations without dedicated physical branches in Mumbai, such as the Spices Board, will be easily accessible through this integrated system.
The Minister emphasized that this turnaround will fundamentally change the way citizens interact with the Government of India. Dedicated personnel will be stationed at the hub to respond to any stakeholder requirement, which will significantly bring down the cost of administration, improve overall productivity, and make life easier and simpler for businesses and common citizens alike.
Highlighting the environmental benefits of the move, Shri Piyush Goyal stated that the co-location model will actively promote green governance. The consolidation is set to conserve energy, save fuel, and drastically reduce unnecessary travel for both the public and government officials.
The Minister announced that India's export promotion missions will run directly out of these integrated offices. This structural synergy is designed to aggressively facilitate trade operations and anchor the nation's ambitious export targets, driving toward $1 trillion for this year and $2 trillion by 2030.
