In a bid to make Noida, Greater Noida and areas surrounding the Yamuna Expressway an industrial hub, Industrial Development Commissioner (IDC) Alok Ranjan stressed on infrastructural development of the region at a meeting with top officials of all three authorities.
Ranjan asked the officials to take all necessary steps to attract IT companies to Noida. He also reviewed the progress of the projects announced by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav in April. Declaring Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) a milestone for industrial development of the whole region, Ranjan said that the UP Industry Department is in constant touch with the Government of India for clearance of the project and announcement regarding this is likely to be made soon.
"As the corridor starts from Bodaki area of Greater Noida, we have appealed the Centre to clear the project soon. We have also urged them to clear Eastern Corridor, which crosses through the region. We are also increasing infrastructure of Bodaki Railway Station so we could connect it with the DMIC," said the IDC.
Talking about the ongoing developmental projects in Noida and Greater Noida, the CEO of both Noida and Greater Noida Authority, Rama Raman, announced that the city will have a water treatment plant with the capacity of 80 cusec water, which will help in supplying 'Ganga Water' in every nook and corner of the city from December this year.
