Hyderabad: Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka said the State government will set up two Leather Parks in Telangana with central assistance.
Tabling the Telangana budget in the Assembly here on Saturday, Bhatti Vikramarka said that the micro and small industries would play a major role in providing employment opportunities to people.
In order to tap the potential, the State government has proposed to develop Clusters to establish Micro and Small industries. It will effectively tap the funds from the Centre’s Micro Small Enterprises Cluster Development Programme (MSECDP) programme. Utilising PM Mithra funds, the Kakatiya Mega Textile Park will be developed, he said.
“Any development concentrated in pockets would lead to regional and economic disparities. To ensure equitable development across the State, the Congress government has decided to set up Pharma Clusters this year in Telangana, ensuring that there is minimal loss to people’s property by establishing them away from the habitations,” Batti informed.
He further stated that the State government has embarked on a plan to set up two dry ports in Telangana.
“By setting up dry ports, goods transport for export will be feasible and cost effective too. This would greatly incentivize exports of goods from Telangana State,” Batti added.
