Hyderabad, Sept.12 (NSS): Industrialists of various industrial parks had an interactive session with Dr E. Vishnu Vardhan Reddy, CMD of Telangana Industrial Infrastructure Corporation Ltd (TGIIC), at FTCCI on Wednesday evening. The purpose of the interaction was to discuss infrastructure facilities in Industrial Parks and IALAs, challenges, problems faced by Industries in those areas and potential solutions.

Giving his opening remarks, Suresh Kumar Singhal, President of FTCCI said the industrial growth and development depends more on the infrastructure facilities created by the government than on incentives offered and industrial parks influence the progress of the sector. TGIIC being the nodal agency for the development of industrial parks and land allotment is playing a key role in the industrial growth of State. In this context, FTCCI has taken initiative to organize this interactive meeting so that the entrepreneurs can directly put forth the challenges they are facing either infrastructure-wise or amenities wise.

A few other focus areas would be MSMEs, decentralisation of industrial growth beyond urban areas, and women’s entrepreneurship. The MSME Policy of the State was recently approved by the State cabinet and it is ready to be announced by the Minister soon at an appropriate time, he shared.
Suresh Singhal gave Dr Vishnu Vardhan Reddy an appeal from FTCCI to give them a chance to associate with the proposed Skill University by setting up an Industrial Management Skill School. Dr. Reddy assured FTCCI that he would take up the matter with the concerned officials.
