To boost industrial growth in the state, the government has started work on developing 10 new Industrial Model Townships (IMTs). Land has already been identified for this purpose. A new industrial policy will soon be introduced, and drafts for various related policies are being prepared, the minister said.

He said that Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, who also holds the portfolio of Finance Minister, has given priority to the industrial sector in the budget. The budget for the Industries Department has been increased by 126 per cent, with a total allocation of Rs 1848 crore for the current financial year.

Singh said that bringing major changes to the industrial sector over the next five years is his top priority as the Industry Minister.

"A new IMT will be developed in Mewat, adjoining Gurugram. After Manesar, M/s Amprex Technologies Ltd. has shown interest in setting up a unit in Mewat. Out of its proposed Rs 7,083 crore, an investment of Rs 2,460 crore has been made by the company. State government is committed to transforming Nuh into a developed district like others in Haryana," the minister said.

He further said that to promote the textile industry, the state has launched the 'Haryana AatmaNirbhar Textile Policy 2025'. Textile industries in Panipat, Gurugram, and Faridabad will also be promoted. Under this policy, a provision has been made to give a subsidy of Rs.1200 crore to the industries.

"Areas with at least 10 acres of land and 50 proposed industrial units will be declared as 'confirmation zones'. A dedicated portal for this will be made, where investors can upload their documents. A 'Single Window System' has been set up in Panchkula to provide NOCs to entrepreneurs. Similar systems will be established in other districts so that investors don't have to visit multiple offices for approvals," he added.

Great initiative by Haryana govt! The 126% budget increase shows real commitment to industrial growth. Mewat development is much needed - hope it creates jobs for local youth. Just ensure proper implementation 👍

As someone from Panipat, I'm excited about the textile policy! Our city has so much potential in this sector. ₹1200 crore subsidy sounds impressive, but hope small businesses benefit too, not just big players.

Single window system is a game-changer! Running around govt offices for approvals wastes so much time and money. If implemented properly, this could make Haryana the most business-friendly state in North India 💯

While industrial growth is important, hope they consider environmental impacts. Gurugram already has terrible air quality. New IMTs should have strict green norms and proper waste management systems.

Developing Nuh district is a welcome move. This area has been neglected for too long. But govt must ensure local communities get employment opportunities, not just outsiders. Skill development programs should run parallel to industrial projects.

The textile policy is good but what about other traditional industries? Haryana has great potential in agriculture-based industries too. Hope the new industrial policy gives equal focus to all sectors, not just textiles and big tech.
