Chennai:
The goods in the negative list of Pakistan has come down substantially from 8,000 to 1,200 items till February 2012, according to Commerce Secretary Rahul Khullar.
Participating in an interactive meeting organized by Federation of Indian Exports Organisation here, Khullar said the move by Pakistan to remove items from the negative list is a positive one and will help in boosting trade ties.
He said Pakistan has promised to remove by this year-end goods in the negative list and added that the government is making all efforts to do away with the negative list.
He hoped that Pakistan will remove by this year-end goods in the negative list and dismissed theories that the opening of trade relation will only benefit Pakistan and not the entire country.
He said a team from ministry of commerce and industry, led by the joint secretary, would visit various parts of the country later this year to explain the details of the changes in the negative list
