Indian commerce and industry minister Piyush Goyal recently urged the Quality Council of India (QCI) to try to converge various quality and standards organisations in the country so that they may work in tandem towards building a world-class quality system and make quality a national mission. He was addressing QCI’s silver jubilee celebration in New Delhi.

Goyal also holds the portfolios of consumer affairs, textiles and food and public distribution.

“Convergence will also help us scale up absorption of quality standards, help us take the national quality mission to every citizen and every business in the country so that the business environment, the investment environment that we have been able to create in the country can grow from strength to strength and help India become a developed nation by 2047”, Goyal said.

He also urged QCI to help align India with international quality standards.

He applauded the role played by QCI in the One District One Product (ODOP) initiative to encourage products from remote areas to find markets in India and abroad. He said QCI had contributed significantly in the geographical indication (GI) tagging initiative and in completing the Swacch Surveykshan.

QCI had also played a leadership role in the initiative of the Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC), an official release quoted him as saying.

“ONDC will help us save mom and pop stores, save millions of jobs and democratize e-Commerce so that the entire ecosystem gets a chance to engage with modern technology of e-Commerce and become stakeholders of a vibrant future India which cares for every section of the industry, big or small and focuses deeply on customer satisfaction”, he added.
