IITF 2023: The 42nd edition of the India International Trade Fair (IITF) 2023 was inaugurated in the national capital of Delhi Tuesday. This year's theme is 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam', which means 'the world is a family', and IITF 2023 will have nearly 3,500 exhibitors from both India and abroad. 

Delhi Tourism Minister Saurabh Bhardwaj Tuesday inaugurated the Delhi Pavilion, which follows the theme of 'heritage' and showcases progressive initiatives in various sectors, according to an official release, which also said the industries department and the Delhi State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (DSIIDC) will be highlighting policies such as the Delhi Bazaar, PMFME Scheme, Delhi Job Capital, Start-Up Policy, and Bharati Delhi Emporium products.

Key features of the Delhi Pavilion spread over three corridors — showcasing tourism, culture and Industry — include special exhibits and live experiences even as Delhi's Connaught Place and other iconic monuments serve as the focal point. The pavillion has two entry points welcoming visitors, and each features an ‘I Love Delhi’ selfie point.

The first half of the front facade is dedicated to themes such as 'Invest Delhi', 'Clean Delhi', 'Green Delhi' and 'Ease of Living'. At the rear, there is a 3D replica of the 'Akshardham Temple'.

Speaking on the occasion, Bhardwaj said: “Trade Fair is a very special feature of Delhi culture, woven into the vibrant tapestry of our city's identity. Coming here is not just a visit; it's a journey through the corridors of nostalgia, evoking cherished memories of our youth when the fair was an annual tradition. As someone who grew up amidst the bustling streets of Delhi, I feel a deep sense of joy to be here today, inaugurating the Delhi Pavilion.”

He added: “This pavilion is more than an exhibition; it's a reflection of our collective achievements and aspirations as a city."
