“It’s encouraging for Bhutan as well that this movement is initiated,” Wangchuk was quoted as saying by Bhutan’s national newspaper Kuensel.India is in the right path to be a global economic super power because of its huge 1.3 billion population, which can make the country a huge market for anything that is produced and manufactured in India, said the minister.
