## STATEMENT REFERRED TO IN REPLY TO PARTS (a) to (e) OF LOK SABHA STARRED QUESTION  NO. 466 FOR ANSWER ON 05 APRIL, 2023.

- (a): Within the overall framework of PM GatiShakti - National Master Plan (NMP) for providing multi modal connectivity infrastructure to various economic zones, National Industrial Corridor Programme has been envisaged on the backbone of  major  transportation  corridors  like  Eastern  &  Western  Dedicated  Freight Corridors,  Expressways,  National  Highways,  proximity  to  ports  and  airports, etc.
- (b) & (c): National Industrial Corridor Programme is aimed at development of greenfield industrial regions/nodes/area. The objective of development of these Corridors is to expand the industrial output, increase employment opportunities, provide better living and social facilities for the new and growing workforce by way of providing 'plug n play' infrastructure at the plot level and to facilitate the manufacturing investments into the country by providing quality, reliable, sustainable and resilient infrastructure for the industries.  Parameters such  as  capacity  of  proposed  units,  area  of  the  proposed  plant,  manpower deployment  etc,   are  taken  into  account  to  envisage   approximate  per  acre direct employment  that may be generated in the region by setting up of the proposed industrial node. Large scale industrial activities in these nodes  ranges from low tech to high tech in nature which also creates multiple indirect  and  induced  jobs.   Corridor  development  is  taken  up  in  a  phased manner, and status of  approved projects  is at Annexure-I.
- (d) & (e): As  per  the  approved  institutional  &  financial  structure  for  Industrial  Corridor projects,  the  development  framework  is  based  on  a  partnership  approach between Government of India (GoI) and the respective State Govt(s). While GoI through  National  Industrial  Corridor  Development  and  Implementation  Trust (NICDIT) provides funds as equity/debt for development of world class trunk infrastructure in the identified industrial nodes, the States are responsible for providing land. Ministry of Road Transport & Highways (MoRTH) is primarily responsible for overall  development  and maintenance of  National Highways (NHs)  and  not  based  on  each  industrial  node  separately.  The  details  of expenditure incurred on development and maintenance of NHs since 2014-15 is attached at Annexure -II.
