India, Uzbekistan interested to invest in textile factories

India and Uzbekistan are interested in investing in the textile sector in Afghanistan and that the Afghan Ministry of Commerce and Industry is trying to implement programs with the two countries.

Meanwhile, some economists say that Afghanistan has not been able to attract the necessary investment in the sector.

In this episode of Bazar host Nargis Mosavi discusses the topic with Rahimullah Samandar chief operating officer at Afghanistan Chamber of Industries and Mines (ACIM).

However, India has requested Uzbekistan to cut import duties on some textile items like fabrics, made-ups, leather goods and engineering products to promote trade between the countries.
