businessUpdated: Aug 16, 2020 12:10 ISTThe West Bengal government is contemplating to grant industry status to the state’s USD 20 billion logistics sector for seamless development of various infrastructure projects, an official said on Saturday. “The status of industry will help the logistics sector smoothly develop infrastructure. Getting access to land banks, state funding, incentives and single window support will also be easier,” the official said. The state will explore tapping international funding agencies to complement its own budgetary allocations for logistics sector development, they said. The West Bengal government will also give impetus on skill development to create job opportunities for women in the sector.
