GoI issues certificate of GI registration for saffron grown in Kashmir Valley

Jammu, Jul 25 (UNI) In a momentous decision, the GoI has issued certificate of GI registration for the saffron grown in the Kashmir Valley.
Expressing happiness on the development, G C Murmu, Lieutenant Governor, Union Territory of J&K said that this is the first major step to put saffron produced in the Kashmir Valley on the world map with authentication. With the GI tag, Kashmir saffron will acquire more prominence in the export market and would help the farmers get the best remunerative price.
Lieutenant Governor while complimenting the Director Agriculture Kashmir for pursuing GI certification said that restoring the pristine glory of Kashmir saffron is top priority for both the Govt. of UT of J&K as well as GoI. He further said that with the completion and inauguration of State of Art Spice Park next month, these measures will prove to be the game changer for Kashmir saffron.
