Chandigarh 29th Feb:- Rahul Ahuja and
Bhavdeep Sardana newly elected Chairman and Vice
Chairman of CII Punjab for the year 2020-21 have welcomed the
budget presented by the Finance Minister, Manpreet Badal.
Rahul Ahuja
said that the proposed industrial parks in Mattewal, Bathinda and Rajpura on
the Amritsar-Kolkatta Industrial Corridor and a pharmaceutical park in
Wazirabad in Fatehgarh Sahib would help in building the industrial profile of
the State and also generate the employment opportunities for the people of the
State. He welcome the budgetary allocation for up-gradation of all industrial
focal points which badly need the makeover but he added that the allocation
could have been more for the up-gradadtion of infrastructure in the existing
focal points. Allocation of Rs. 50 crore to acquire the land for Patti Makhu
Rail Link would not only promote the tourism of the holy city as the
distance between Amritsar and Mumbai will be reduced by 240km it but also boost
the exports from the region.
Bhavdeep
Sardana said that the plans to bring about diversification in agriculture by
giving a boost to maize cultivation are welcome. He also lauded the finance
minister for taking care of environment by earmarking Rs 2,510 crore for
supplying canal water for irrigation and proposing a scheme, “Save Water Earn
Money”, which is aimed at rationalizing the use of tube wells.
He also
congratulates the Finance Minister for coming out with a Development Oriented
Balanced Budget and giving priority to the education sector which is the need
of the hour. The decisions to set up Mega Industrial clusters for Textiles,
Pharmaceuticals & Green Industries and provisioning of Rs 131 crores to
Modernise Industry will definitely boost Industrial activity in the state.
