KTR for more jobs to locals in new industrial units
The Hindu
Govt. committed to support such a move by extending additional incentives, says Minister
Industries Minister K.T. Rama Rao has urged entrepreneurs establishing new industrial units in Telangana to consider providing jobs to more local youth as such a move made the investors eligible for additional incentives from the State government. “The State government is committed to ensuring additional incentives if you provide employment opportunities to the local youth,” he said, inaugurating a new plant of solar PV cells and module manufacturing firm Premier Energies in E-City, near here, on Thursday. Set with an investment of ₹ 483 crore, the firm’s new manufacturing unit has a capacity to produce 750 MW solar cell and 750 MW solar module. Noting that 700 direct jobs were provided by the new plant and many of the employees with whom he interacted hail from different parts of the State, he said the firm is planning next to invest ₹1,200 crore for creating 2GW capacity manufacturing facilities. The proposed facilities would create job opportunities for 2,000 people.
