UPSIDA Clears 34 Proposals To Boost Industrial Infra And Investment In Uttar Pradesh

(MENAFN- KNN India) Lucknow, Apr 4 (KNN) The Uttar Pradesh State Industrial Development Authority (UPSIDA) this week approved 34 proposals focused on industrial development, infrastructure strengthening, and investment promotion during its board meeting.

The meeting reviewed multiple initiatives aimed at enhancing industrial capacity and improving ease of doing business in the state, reported The Indian Express.

Focus on Infrastructure and Quality Assurance

Among the key decisions, the board approved the selection of a Third-Party Inspection Agency (TPIA) to ensure quality in development and maintenance works across industrial areas.

Layout plans were cleared for industrial zones in Kampil Spinning Mill, Mau Aima, Bahadurganj, Salempur and Barabanki.

Additionally, revised layouts for industrial areas in Ballia, Hathras, Fatehpur, Barabanki, and Chitrakoot were approved with necessary modifications.

Policy Reforms and Land Bank Expansion

The meeting, chaired by Alok Kumar, Additional Chief Secretary (Infrastructure and Industrial Development), emphasised policy amendments to expand the land bank.

Key decisions included preparation of a revised land allotment scheme, processing of applications as per updated rules and allocation of 75 percent land through standard allotment, with the remaining 25 percent via e-auction

Tech-Driven Monitoring

UPSIDA also decided to implement a drone-based monitoring system to oversee civil works, electrical infrastructure and solid waste management. This is expected to improve transparency and ensure timely execution of projects.

The authority confirmed that ongoing infrastructure projects are being financially supported by the government and will be expedited for completion within one year.

Simultaneously, land allotment processes will continue alongside development work to avoid delays.

Strengthening Connectivity and Logistics

Highlighting future priorities, Kumar stressed the need to focus on road connectivity and logistics infrastructure, particularly in regions such as Saharanpur and Badaun, during land acquisition.

The approved proposals are expected to strengthen industrial infrastructure, improve investor confidence, and accelerate industrial growth in Uttar Pradesh, reinforcing its position as a key investment destination.
