Industries and Trades of Haryana State have a lot of expectations from the new BJP Government, and are hopeful that schemes for Industrial development will be implemented in a better way. This was stated by H P Yadav, President, NCR Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Gurgaon. The Chamber has sent a letter send to the Chief Minister, offering the following suggestions:
1. The formation of a ‘Haryana Industrial Peacekeeping Group (from Haryana Police)’, for the prompt handling of crises and frequent labour unrest problems.
2. The development of patches of vacant, barren land in NCR, into Industrial/ Economical Zones, with proper infrastructure and facilities. This will also help prevent the use of cultivated/agricultural land for industrial/commercial use. A vibrant agriculture will help boost the Horticulture and Food Processing Industries, which will create many new local jobs.
3. Development of Mewat district of Haryana as a Special Industrial Zone. It is still a very backward area, and has a lot of barren and less cultivated land. Industrialisation will also help provide more jobs to locals. Tax concessions, like on Excise and Income tax, on the pattern of Himachal Pradesh and Uttrakhand, can be provided. In fact the Haryana Government (HSIIDC) had already declared that Nuh region would be developed as an IMT (Industrial Model Township), but the progress has been very slow, due to the high cost of land.
4. More focused Industrial Training through ITIs, Polytechnics and other training Institutes, so that trained/skilled workforce is made available to Industries. Modern education facilities, using latest updated tools as per the requirement of Industries, are required; at the same time, Management Colleges/Institutions are also advised to have a practical and focused approach.
The Chamber has also asked for the extension of Delhi Metro services to Manesar and Rewari, and for better public transport in the industrial areas,.
