The DGFT will forward the same to the Commerce Ministry which will take a final decision. The central arecanut and cocoa marketing and processing cooperative (CAMPCO) president A Kishore Kumar Kodgi, in his speech, requested the union government not to allow import of arecanut as it will adversely affect the domestic market.
