Shivanand Patil, Minister for Textiles and Sugarcane Development, directed Kalaburagi district administration officials to hand over 1,000 acres in the first phase for the development of Mega Textile Park near Ferozabad off Kalaburagi-Jewargi Road under the Union government’s PM MITRA Parks and mention the name of Textile Department in the RTC.
At a brief meeting of senior officers at Aiwan-e-Shahi Guest House in Kalaburagi on Sunday, the Minister stressed the need for speeding up the demarcation of government lands for the establishment of the Textile Park that was expected to attract investments of ₹10,000 crore.
“It is a mega project that is expected to attract around ₹10,000 crore in investments. We need to first provide required lands, complete the process of handing over the lands to the department, and erect a fence or compound wall for preventing its encroachment,” he said.
