Explanation
The Districts as Export Hubs initiative was launched in August 2019, India's Foreign Trade Policy 2023 reiterated its role, and it promotes exports through financial inclusion and logistical/infrastructural support — statements A, C and D are correct. Its aim, however, is to develop every district as an export hub (through One District One Product), not to boost exports of 'only selected districts' — so statement B is the incorrect one. The initiative is implemented through the One District One Product approach.
