Piyush Goyal today called upon Government e-Marketplace (GeM) to expand its scope and include more participants in GeM portal for public procurement of both Products & Services. Interacting with the Officers of GeM and the department of Commerce, he said that it should not only evolve as One-Stop shop for the requirement of all Central and State Government Offices as well as their PSUs, but also provide opportunities to MSMEs to showcase their products. Lauding GeM as a completely paperless, cashless and system driven e-market place that enables procurement of common use goods and services with minimal human interface, Shri Goyal said that Hon’ble Prime Minister has a lot of expectation from the portal and it should come upto them. He said that the portal should be cautious against the cartelization by the sellers.
