In a meeting held on Wednesday in New Delhi, Chief Minister of Telangana presented various proposals for industrial development to Union Minister.

CM brought to the Union Minister’s attention the relocation of the National Design Center (NID) from Hyderabad to Vijayawada post the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh. Urging the sanctioning of NID for Telangana, the Chief Minister also sought approval for a Mega Leather Park, already designated for Nellore district in the undivided Andhra Pradesh, to be relocated to Telangana, where the necessary land in Karimnagar and Jangaon districts has been acquired. Additionally, the Chief Minister appealed to Minister to accord Greenfield status to the Mega Textile Park in Warangal under the PM Mitra scheme. CM emphasized the potential for accelerated industrial development, noting that the conversion from Brownfield to Greenfield would attract an additional 300 Crore in funds.
