Policy (2004 - 2015) New
The state cabinet accorded approval
to its path breaking Industrial Policy 2004. With a view
to give stability to the policy, it was decided that the
Industrial Policy 2004 shall remain valid until March 31,
2015 when it will be reviewed. The cabinet emphasized on
the need to promote local employment in industrial units
of the state. If specific skills are not available in the
state, special training will be organized to train local
youth in such skills. Ensuring maximum local employment
in industrial units will form a condition of approval for
any new industrial units. The cabinet also laid great stress
on ensuring that the incentives and subsidies reached the
genuine industrialists without much loss of time.
