Bhubaneswar: November 03: In the run up to the second edition of Make In Odisha Conclave 2018. Odisha’s Industrial Journey received a major boost with CM Naveen Patnaik performing Ground Breaking Ceremony for 15 Industrial Units which will collectively invest INR 1807.92 Crore and create employment opportunities for 8883 people.
Speaking at the Ceremony, Chief Minister said, ‘I am pleased to note that we are grounding the Industrial Projects at a fast pace. I am particularly happy to note that the private Industrial Park Policy of my Government has seen a good response from the investor community and we have performed groundbreaking of the Industrial Park at Dhamra, which will promote port-led manufacturing in the State. In less than one year, we have done the ground breaking or inauguration of 64 projects which have created employment opportunities for more than 30000 youth. This has only reaffirmed our position as the number one state in implementation of live manufacturing investments’.
The state provides unmatched facilitation mechanism to investors where Odisha CM closely monitors the investment proposals leading to grounding of projects on time with all supporting infrastructure facilities. This assumes significance as Odisha is among the few states in India which is attracting big-ticket investment proposals in manufacturing consistently.
Besides, the High Level Clearance Authority (HLCA) headed by Chief Minister cleared six mega manufacturing proposals entailing investments to the tune of INR 25,845 crore.
