India Today reports that Firozabad's glass industry now exports products to over 100 countries, including Germany, Japan, Europe and America. The expansion beyond traditional bangles is supported by the Uttar Pradesh government's One District One Product (ODOP) scheme, which provides loans, subsidies, training and technical assistance. Under ODOP, 1,778 people were trained. The Vishwakarma Shram Samman Yojana has benefited 5,550. Over the past 12 years, more than 11,000 beneficiaries have been assisted through schemes including Mukhyamantri Yuva Swarozgar Yojana (624), Mukhyamantri Yuva Udyami Yojana (1,996) and PMEGP (627). Firozabad is being positioned as a global hub for glass.
