Bhopal, Oct 23 (KNN) The Madhya Pradesh Government will form a committee to look into the problems faced by the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the state and find solutions to the problems.

MP Chief Minister Kamal Nath has said a committee headed by chief secretary will be constituted.

Traders and small industries play an important role in the development of the state and in strengthening its economy, Nath said at a programme organized by the Confederation of Madhya Pradesh for Industry Service and Trade.

"Without them, we cannot think of comprehensive development of the state. The biggest challenge before us is how to identify the changes and adapt to them," he said.

"The government will soon set up a committee under the chairmanship of chief secretary to hold dialogue with representatives of the traders and businessmen from time-to- time to resolve their issues," he said.

Recalling the recent investors' meet in Indore, he said the government has created an environment to win the trust of the business community.

During the last seven-and-half months, the government has identified some problems faced by investors, he added.

He also said that significant efforts have been made in the fields such as agriculture, investment, tourism and entertainment sectors to enhance the state's economy. It is more important for people to have disposable income than per capita income and GDP growth rate, he opined.

The basic objective of the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MNREGA) and Grameen Sadak Yojana was that money should reach villages and increase the purchasing power of people. "Only then would we be able to develop economically," he said.
