State Minister for Industries Kamal Ahmed Mojumder on Tuesday said initiatives will be taken to reduce tariff so that domestic industrial products can be sustained in competition with imported products, reports BSS.

“If domestic industries produce international quality products, it should be more sincere to use the domestic products rather than importing it from abroad,” he said while speaking as the chief guest at a view exchange meeting on “Potentialities of Domestic Steel Building Industry” at the factory of Steel Mark Building Limited in Gazipur, said a press release.

Calling for providing the highest priority on customer satisfaction, the state minister said import of steel infrastructure building products will be reduced if consumer becomes satisfaction on local products. Under the initiatives of the government, he said, different large establishments are being constructed and the government is encouraging to use local products.

Additional superintendent of police AKM Jahirul Islam and executive magistrate of the Gazipur District Administration Kamruzzaman, among others, were present at the meeting.
