The Maharashtra state government has relaxed the condition of obtaining unique identity number (UID) for availing the state’s schemes, simplifying the process for textile projects.
The state’s Co-operation, Textiles and Marketing Department issued a notification on January 29 relaxing the mandatory condition of obtaining UID to avail the schemes implemented by the government.
