Under
the proposed Delhi-Mumbai industrial corridor, a sum of Rs
one crore has been sanctioned for development of areas in
Madhya Pradesh. An autonomous committee would be formed for
this project and Chief Secretary of the State would be the
chairman of it. MP Trade and Investment Facilitation Corporation
(TRIFEC) would be made nodal agency. It is noticeable that
under this industrial rail corridor UP, Haryana, Rajasthan,
Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and Maharashtra areas would come between
Delhi and Mumbai. A meeting in this connection was presided
over by Chief Minister, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, where the concerned
ministers were also present. Industrial development of Peethampur-Dhar-Mhow,
Dewas-Shajapur, Ratlam-Nagda and Neemuch-Nayagaon areas would
be taken up under this corridor. Along with this Indore Chota
Udaipur-Pratap Nagar, Neemuch, Ratlam, broad gauge Dahod-Indore,
Dewas-Maksi railway routes would be developed on priority.
With this project, on the one hand the job opportunities would
increase, whereas western Madhya Pradesh would get chance
to develop. If connectivity is increased with this corridor
then the entire state would get its benefit. It may be noted
that the 10-year project entails an expenditure of Rs 360
crore. Around Rs 40,000 crore would be spent in the areas
of MP under the project. Seeing the possibilities of industrial
development and the importance of corridor there should be
arrangements accordingly. It is yet another chance for the
progress of the State and no effort should be left out.
