In a strategic move towards fostering industrial growth, Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy has issued crucial directives to officials for the identification of expansive land parcels ranging from 500 to 1,000 acres. These designated areas lie between the Outer Ring Road (ORR) and the proposed Regional Ring Road (RRR), forming the canvas for the development of innovative industrial clusters.
Targeted Location Criteria: Proximity and Accessibility
The Chief Minister outlined specific criteria for the selection of these land parcels. They should ideally be within a 50 to 100 km radius of the international airport and national/state highways. This strategic positioning aims to optimize connectivity and accessibility for seamless industrial operations.
Focus on Sustainable Development: Mitigating Impact on Agriculture and Environment
Emphasizing the importance of responsible development, A. Revanth Reddy stressed that the identified lands should be dry and non-cultivable. This ensures that farmers do not bear losses, and the risk of pollution is minimized, particularly in areas distanced from residential zones. Acquiring such lands aligns with the government’s commitment to both cost-effectiveness and garnering support from the farming community.
