The minister held talks with Rajneesh, additional secretary and development commissioner of the central ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises.

Srinivas highlighted the significant projects under way in the state that are vital to MSME development. He outlined the state's efforts to boost MSME clusters by improving necessary infrastructure and leveraging geographical advantages to enhance the ecosystem.

He underscored the state government's initiatives to establish a conducive environment for small-scale industries on a large scale and sought central government support for the provision of essential infrastructure.
