## उत्तर

## ANSWER वस्त्र मंत्री ( श्रीमती स्मृतत ज़ूबिन इरानी )

MINISTER OF TEXTILES (SMT. SMRITI ZUBIN IRANI)

(a) & (b): The  Government  has  not  received  any  proposal  for  setting  up  of  textile  units  in  Assam  and Gujarat under 'Make in India Scheme'. However, the Government is implementing Scheme for Integrated Textile Park (SITP) which is demand driven and it provides support for creation of world-class infrastructure facilities for setting up of textile units, with a Government of India grant upto 40% of the project cost  and Government of India grant upto 90% of the project cost for first two projects (each) in the States of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Tripura, Sikkim, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Union Territory of Jammu & Kashmir and Union Territory of Ladakh; with ceiling limit of Rs. 40.00 crores for each textile park. The Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) formed by the representatives of local industry, Financial Institutions, State Industrial and Infrastructural Corporations and other agencies of State and Central Governments  registered as a Corporate  Body  under  Companies  Act  would  submit  their  proposal  directly  to  the  Ministry  for  consideration. SITP is thus a demand driven scheme. 1 textile park has been sanctioned in State of Assam  and 14 textile parks have been sanctioned in the State of Gujarat under SITP by the Ministry of Textiles, the details of which is placed at Annexure.

- (c): As per the data furnished by the textile parks sanctioned under SITP, the State-wise details of textile units within SITP,  set up in the last 3 years is as under:
