The meeting was attended by senior officials of Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) and National Industrial Corridor Development Corporation (NICDC). The Minister was briefed about the substantial progress of the Industrial Corridor Programme.
The Government has over the past few years further enhanced the National Corridor Network to 11 integrated industrial and economic corridors with 32 Projects to be developed in four phases, thus enabling connectivity to all key economic nodes in the country.
“The National Industrial Corridor projects are getting developed on the overall framework of PM GatiShakti – National Master Plan to provide a systematic, multi-modal connectivity to various economic zones for a seamless movement of people, goods and services resulting in efficient conduct of logistics and economic activities,” said Union Minister of Commerce and Industry, Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution and Textiles Piyush Goyal.
He was informed that world-class ‘Plug n Play’ infrastructure at plot level has been developed in the 4 cities of Dholera (Gujarat), Shendra Bidkin (Maharashtra), Vikram Udyogpuri (M.P.), Integrated Industrial Township (Greater Noida, U.P.) where land allotment is currently underway.
A total of 173 Plots (851 Acre) have been allotted in these 4 cities attracting investments from companies of South Korea, Russia, China, UK, Japan as well as from India including MSME`s with an investment mobilisation to the tune of approximately Rs 16,760 crore, generating approximately 21,000 employment opportunities.
With the availability of additional developed land of approximately 5000 acre, the Minister directed the officials to expedite the land allotment to industrial, commercial and residential sectors in these developed cities through rigorous marketing activities including road shows and attractive and conducive land allotment policies.
The Minister further directed that regular interactions be made with the plot allottees so as to handhold them in resolving issues that they must be facing in starting the construction of their factories or commercial production. He further directed to expedite activities with respect to other projects where land can be made available to industries.
Union Minister of Commerce and Industry, Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution and Textiles Piyush Goyal instructed that in order to bring complete transparency in the land allotment system, e-land management system (e-LMS) should be implemented across all the projects and continuous monitoring should be done through an integrated dashboard.
“The National Industrial Corridor Programme is a pan India initiative and development of plug and play infrastructure will boost manufacturing ecosystem in the country and shall have a domino effect on the development of the nation as a whole and has the full potential of realizing the vision of Prime Minister for AtmaNirbhar Bharat,” said Union Minister of Commerce and Industry, Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution and Textiles Piyush Goyal
