Chief Minister Raghubar Das today said that the State government will help youths from Scheduled Caste, Scheduled Tribe and Dalit communities to set up industries in the State. Keeping the fact in mind, the Government has announced to provide subsidy to ST-SC youths in setting up industries, under which the youths will get land on half price and they have to repay the remaining amount in 10 installments in a period of five years.
The proposal was approved in the eighth meeting of the Directors’ Board of the Jharkhand Industrial Development Authority, chaired by the CM here on Friday.
Chairing the meeting Das asked officials to exhort more and more youths for setting up small industries. “By establishing industries they will also become job providers.
This will bring change in their lives and also accelerate speed of development in Jharkhand. A net of industries in rural areas will also bring prosperity in villages of the State,” he said.
During the meeting the CM instructed to hold meeting of Business to Government (B2G) every month. He asked to hold meeting on a fixed date every month by deputy commissioners of every district, who are also the regional directors. Das said that the district level meetings will help resolve the local level issues of industrialists.
During the meeting the 2019-20 budget of JIADA was also approved and decisions were taken to provide funds for setting up of plastic park in Deoghar and allotment of land for establishing electricity feeders and sub-stations in industrial areas.
