Textile exports jumped to $10.9 billion with 25% increase in seven months of the current financial year due to the best policies and by the end of the fiscal year they are expected to reach $21 billion,” the minister tweeted.
In January alone, he said the country earned $1.55 billion from textile exports, gaining a 17.3 percent growth.
