The trade show sounds impressive! Showcasing UP's craftsmanship to international buyers is a great step. Hope our local artisans get good exposure and business opportunities. The Bhadohi carpets and Moradabad metalware deserve global recognition.

While GST has improved compliance, I feel the tax rates on some essential items are still high. The reform is good but needs more refinement to benefit common people. The trade show initiative is excellent though - great for economic growth.

As someone who works with export businesses, I've seen how GST has simplified interstate trade. The input tax credit system is much better than the previous regime. The trade show participation from 80 countries shows UP's growing global appeal.

The mention of women beneficiaries in the speech is encouraging. Hope the GST reforms and trade opportunities actually reach women entrepreneurs at grassroots level. The craft sector has many women artisans who deserve support.
