India: Punjab to acquire 250 acre for a textile park under PM-MITRA scheme

  

The Punjab government plans to acquire another 250 acre to set up a park under the Prime Minister Mega Integrated Textile Region and Apparel (PM-MITRA) scheme in the state. As per reports, the project requires 1,000 acre in all. Of this, 957 acres will be acquired from the Greater Ludhiana Area Development Authority (GLADA), a special development authority of the housing and urban development department.

However, as the land available with GLADA is currently under litigation or under stay by the judicial courts, the government needs to acquire additional area to fill the minimum land requirement for the project. In this regard, the Industries Department of the State government has sent letters to the Principal Secretary, Department of Housing and Urban Development, to fulfill the additional land requirement at the earliest. The Ministry of Textiles has also questioned the department about road connectivity to the proposed site, especially approach road to the Ludhiana-Rupnagar expressway, along with its likely date of completion.
