कथन
Will the Minister of COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY be pleased to state: 10.03.2026 350 (a) whether the development of 12 new industrial smart cities proves the government's vision of creating "pockets of excellence" for manufacturing particularly in Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh; (b) whether the 74% land allotment in early-phase corridors reflects the high global confidence in India’s industrial infrastructure; (c) whether the "Plug-and-Play" model has successfully addressed the primary pain point of land acquisition for new-age entrepreneurs; (d) whether these corridors are effectively decentralising industrial growth and creating high-quality employment in tier-2 and tier-3 cities particularly in Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh; (e) whether the 24/7 power and world-class utilities in these cities ensure that Indian manufacturing remains globally cost-competitive; (f) Whether the NICDP serves as the most robust foundation for achieving the "Zero Effect, Zero Defect" manufacturing vision; and (g) if so, the details thereof? THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY; AND MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF ELECTRONICS AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (SHRI JITIN PRASADA): (a) to (g) Yes. The Government of India in August 2024 approved the development of 12 new industrial smart cities under the National Industrial Corridor Development Programme (NICDP), which is intended to create 10.03.2026 351 greenfield industrial smart cities/clusters of global standards to foster global manufacturing. These 12 industrial nodes are spread across 10 States, including Dighi in Maharashtra and Kopparthy and Orvakal in Andhra Pradesh. About 75% of the industrial land (4,436 acres) has been allotted to investors in four completed Industrial Smart Cities - Dholera, Shendra-Bidkin, IIT Greater Noida, and IIT Vikram Udyogpuri. Additionally, plots have been allotted in Tumakuru, Karnataka (260 acres), and Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh (40 acres). This reflects strong investor interest and growing confidence in India’s industrial infrastructure. The Plug-and-Play model has substantially reduced entry barriers for investors by addressing land acquisition challenges. Project proposals are considered for approval by the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) only after the concerned State Government confirms that at least 80% of the required land has been acquired, thereby minimising land-related uncertainties. A Land Allotment Policy is also established at the project’s inception to ensure transparent and time-bound allotment through the Electronic Land Management System (ELMS), enabling industries to commence operations without delays. Additionally, small- sized plots are earmarked for MSMEs, along with supportive incentives under State Government policies to encourage new-age entrepreneurs. The Industrial Smart Cities under the Programme are strategically located across diverse regions of the country, including in and around Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities such as Dighi Port Industrial Area (Maharashtra), Orvakal and 10.03.2026 352 Kopparthy (Andhra Pradesh) and IIT-Vikram Udyogpuri (Madhya Pradesh). Their development aims to promote balanced and decentralised industrial growth beyond traditional metropolitan centres and is expected to generate approximately 10 lakh direct jobs, including high-quality manufacturing and services employment, thereby strengthening economic activity in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities and catalysing regional economic development. The industrial cities under the Programme are being developed with the provision of a 24×7 reliable power supply, integrated water management systems, ICT- enabled utilities and other world-class infrastructure. Common facilities such as Sewage Treatment Plants, Water Treatment Plants and Common Effluent Treatment Plants are being created as shared infrastructure, which reduces the need for individual units to set up captive utilities and thereby lowers initial capital expenditure and fixed costs, supporting global cost competitiveness of Indian manufacturing. The Zero Defect Zero Effect (ZED) scheme, launched by India in 2016, enables Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) to produce high- quality goods with no defects (Zero Defect) and minimal environmental impact (Zero Effect). The NICDP incorporates sustainability principles such as green building norms, renewable energy integration and efficient waste management, thereby providing a robust foundation to advance the “Zero Effect, Zero Defect” manufacturing vision of high-quality production with minimal environmental impact. Further, as part of quality assurance and certification initiatives, a 10.03.2026 353 12,000 sq. ft. area at Shendra- Bidkin has been allotted to the National Test House (NTH) to establish a sample collection centre with test facilities. सूàम िसंचाई 2798. ®ी मुरारी लाल मीनाः ³या कृिष और िकसान कÐयाण मंýी यह बताने कì कृपा कर¤गे िक: (क)जल कì कमी और भू-जल के अÂयिधक दोहन से ÿभािवत दौसा ±ेý म¤ सूàम िसंचाई तकनीकŌ जैसे िűप और िÖÿंकलर ÿणाली को बढ़ावा देने के िलए कायाªिÆवत कì गई िवशेष योजनाओं का Êयौरा ³या है? कृिष और िकसान कÐयाण मंýालय म¤ राºय मंýी (®ी भागीरथ चौधरी): (क) ÿित बूंद अिधक फसल (पीडीएमसी) Öकìम ÿधानमंýी राÕůीय कृिष िवकास योजना (पीएम- आरकेवीवाई) के अंतगªत राजÖथान के दौसा िजले सिहत पूरे देश म¤ कायाªिÆवत कì जा रही है। इस Öकìम का उĥेÔय सूàम िसंचाई तकनीकŌ, जैसे िűप और िÖÿंकलर िसंचाई ÿणािलयŌ के उपयोग के माÅयम से खेती Öतर पर जल उपयोग द±ता को बढ़ाना है। वषª 2015-16 से दौसा िजले म¤ पीडीएमसी के माÅयम से 13,046 हे³टेयर ±ेý को सूàम िसंचाई के अंतगªत शािमल िकया गया है (28.02.2026 तक)। इसके अितåरĉ, भारत सरकार ने राÕůीय कृिष एवं úामीण िवकास ब§क के साथ एक सूàम िसंचाई कोष (एमआईएफ) Öथािपत िकया है। एमआईएफ का मु´य उĥेÔय राºयŌ को पीडीएमसी Öकìम के अंतगªत उपलÊध सहायता के अितåरĉ िकसानŌ को सूàम िसंचाई के िलए टॉप- अप/अितåरĉ ÿोÂसाहन रािश जुटाने म¤ सहायता करना है। राºय िविशĶ आवÔयकताओं के अनुसार सूàम िसंचाई से संबंिधत नवाचारी/एकìकृत पåरयोजनाओं के िलए भी एमआईएफ का उपयोग कर सकते ह§। एमआईएफ के तहत, दौसा िजले सिहत राºय के िकसानŌ को पीडीएमसी के माÅयम से 10.03.2026 354 सूàम िसंचाई ÿणाली Öथािपत करने के िलए अितåरĉ सिÊसडी ÿदान करने के उदेÔय से राजÖथान राºय के िलए वषª 2021-22 के दौरान एक पåरयोजना को मंजूरी दी गई है। NATIONAL COOPERATIVE DATABASE 2799.
