"This will provide a platform for constant dialogue and transparency in resolution of issues. I intend to roll it out as soon as possible," said Alok V. Chaturvedi, additional secretary, Department of Commerce while inaugurating 10th SEZ Convention organized by ASSOCHAM.

He added that the online platform would be on the lines of a Project Monitoring Group system in the Cabinet Secretariat.
