Addressing a seminar on Implications of the SME bill' organised by the Bengal National Chamber of Commerce and Industry here, Mr Dasgupta said, ''This bank will provide necessary linkages to ensure that the SME units get proper technological help.'' A comprehensive business model for manufacturing products and marketing would be developed in this bank in every state with the help of the state and union government and small scale development organisations, he said.
''In West Bengal I have asked my department to select ten important manufacturing products in each district and frame business model for those items with assistance from Small Industries Development Institute, Tool Room, the state and the Union Small Scale Industries Ministry,'' Mr Dasgupta said.
