First meeting of Project Approval Committee, empowered to select the park sites in the Scheme, was held on 24.5.2022 considered all the proposals.  However, additional information from concerned state Governments has been sought.

- (c): PM MITRA Parks are envisaged to be set up at strategic locations, as ready to move, ready to start  (through  plug  and  play  facilities),  with  common  industrial  infrastructure  and  facilities,  allowing integration of supply and value chains in a contiguous area. The key criteria of good connectivity to the nearest Port / Dedicated Freight Corridor / Industrial Corridor/Textiles Cluster, Reliable Power Supply and  Water  availability  and  Waste  Water  Disposal  system  is  envisaged  to  reduce  logistic  cost  of Industry. Further, it is intended to equip the sector with world-class facilities for both industrial units and workers working and staying in and around MITRA Park
