The Are Other Companies Already
Establishing Their Foothold In The Project, Companies Like Infosys Is Coming
With A Project Where 13,000 Jobs Would Be Offered. The Next In Line Is TCS Who
Would Also Launch Its Operations With Provision Of Enormous Employment.
On Addressing The NVCC (Nag
Vidarbha Chamber Of Commerce), He Said That There Is Saturation In The City Of
Pune, Big Companies Were Eyeing Developments In Cities Like Nagpur. He Further
Said That “ We Are Marketing MIHAN And Inviting Investors To Park Their Money”.
The Other Way To Attract Investors Was That An ‘Adavntage Vidarbha ‘Has
Been Planned. The Main Concentration Sectors That We Are Looking At Are –
Manufacturing, Co-Operatives, Textile And Automotive. Around 5000
Hectares Of Land Would Be Acquired For The NIMZ Project. The Indian Institute
Of Information Technology Establishment Is Considered In Places Like Nagpur And
Pune.
Octroi
The Next He Spoke Upon The Octroi
Issue. He Said That The Government Was Introducing Local Body Tax (LBT) In Lieu
Of Octroi. It Would Be An Account – Based Tax With A Totally Hassle-Free
Structure. There Has Been A Delay In Implementation Of GST Due To Opposition
From Non Congress- Ruled States. GST Would Synchronize Taxes And Create
Competitive Markets In The Country.
President Of NVCC Dipen Agrawal
Shed Light On The Erratic Hike N Power Tariff Which Has Crumbled The Backbones
Of Industries. He Went On To Say That The Power Tariff Has Increased Many Fold
On The Last 13 Months. The Rate That Has Being Charged Currently Is Rs 8.50p
Per Unit Which Is Comparatively Higher That I.E Chhattisgarh And MP And Other
Places Have Been Charged A Fee Of Rs 4.50p Per Unit. Vidarbha Is The Major
Power Region And Most Of The Power Is Being Produced In This Region But Later
Is Being Distributed To Western Maharashtra. There Is An Urgent Need To Develop
Irrigation Through Canal Network. Cold Storages And Warehouses Must Be Set Up
To Increase Shelf Life Of Agriculture Produce.
Finally He Said That NVCC Wants
Compulsory Installation Of Captive Oxygen Cylinder Plants At Government
Hospitals, “In Comparison To The Charges Of Supplies Of Oxygen Cylinders The
Payback Period For These Plants Would Be Around 3 To 3 ½ Years . Nagpur Rail
Project Should Be Implemented At The Earliest.
