Role of MSMEsIn his address at Bharat Tex 2025 , the Prime Minister emphasized on the role of MSMEs in textiles and urged the banks to ensure greater availability of credits to this sector. Shri Bhadresh Dodhia said “the announcement of the National Manufacturing Mission in the Union Budget 2025 will give a boost to MSMEs as they contribute towards 80% of the manufacturing capacities in the textiles & clothing sector”.
