‘State emerged as a magnet for industries due to its enabling policies’

CHANDIGARH: In the past few years, Haryana has made rapid strides on several fronts including industrial developmen­t under the able guidance and leadership of Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar. Haryana is well on its way to inclusive growth driven by a strong commitment of the government towards public welfare and ensuring the advanced facilities to its citizens. Likewise, Haryana Government is actively working towards making Haryana an industrial and automobile hub.

The growth in automobile sector in Haryana can be gauged by the fact that Maruti is coming up with its 3rd plant in the state. Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL)/ Suzuki Motorcycle India Private Limited (SMIPL) and Haryana State Industrial & Infrastruc­ture Developmen­t Corporatio­n Limited (HSIIDC) are all set to sign an agreement for the allotment of 800-acre & 100 acre land at IMT Kharkhoda, respective­ly, in a ceremony being organised on May 19, 2022 in the presence of Chief Minister Khattar. This event would also celebrate the four decades of Haryana-japan business relationsh­ip, which began in 1981 and continues to flourish even today.

The Chief Minister said that this is a huge achievemen­t for the state as Maruti is setting up its 3rd plant in Haryana. He said that MSIL has purchased an additional 800 acres at IMT Kharkhoda land for its proposed new car manufactur­ing facility. The total project cost is estimated to be Rs 18,000 crore. It has the potential to generate employment for 11,000 skilled, unskilled and semi-skilled persons. Along with MSIL,

SMIPL has also purchased a 100-acre land parcel for setting up an integrated manufactur­ing facility for two-wheelers, including engines. The total project cost is estimated to be Rs 1,466 crore, with a potential to generate employment for 2,000 skilled, unskilled and semi-skilled persons.

“India is performing well in the easeof-doing-business and the ease-of-living index and Haryana is considered the fastest in both these respects. Haryana is one of the favourite destinatio­ns for global investors. Maruti played a major role towards developmen­t in the automobile sector and overall progress of the state,” the Chief Minister said.

“This will give a huge boost to the automobile sector and will motivate multinatio­nal companies in other sectors to set up their headquarte­rs and manufactur­ing plants in Haryana. Along with this, new employment opportunit­ies will also be created for the youth of the state,” he added.

Khattar further added, “Haryana has emerged as a magnet for the industry due to its enabling policies, availabili­ty of quality infrastruc­ture, ease-of-doing business, conducive business environmen­t and incentive structure.”
