Bhimavaram
in Andhra Pradesh's West Godavari district and Visakhapatnam have
been recognised as 'towns of export excellence' under the seafood
category. "Visakhapatnam and Bhimavaram have been recognised as
towns of export excellence under the seafood category and it is for
the first time that the cities from Andhra Pradesh have entered the
list," TDP leader and Rajya Sabha member Seetha Rama Lakshmi
told reporters here yesterday. At present, there are 33 towns in this
category across the country but there was no representation from AP.
She said it will encourage the exporters, keeping in view common
service providers in the areas, who are eligible under the Export
Promotion Capital Goods (EPCG) scheme, which enables the import of
equipment with nil or concessional duties. "We had earlier,
submitted a memorandum to Minister of State for Commerce and Industry
Nirmala Sitharaman and state Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu,
citing statistics representation on shrimp exports from Bhimavaram in
August last year and urged them to give its due recognition,"
Lakshmi added. "Now, we will receive priority for assistance for
rectifying the identified infrastructure gaps," she said, adding
that the state shall utilise the funds for developing infrastructure
required to boost export. She said facilities like export industrial
parks/zones, equity participation in infrastructure projects,
development of minor ports and jetties would have not been possible
till Bhimavaram was recognised. The TDP leader said Naidu took a keen
interest in the matter and was in touch with the government for
recognising the two cities as towns of export excellence under
seafood category.
