## THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR TEXTILES (SHRI PABITRA MARGHERITA)

(a): The Government has approved setting up of 7 (Seven) PM Mega Integrated Textile Region and Apparel (PM MITRA) Parks in  Greenfield/Brownfield sites with world class infrastructure including plug and play facility with an outlay of Rs. 4,445 cr for a period of seven years upto 2027-28.  Since the scheme  is  at  an  initial  stage  of  implementation,  therefore  no  survey/study/research  has  so  far  been conducted.   Apart from this, Ministry is also implementing Scheme for Integrated Textile Park (SITP) to provide support for setting up textile parks with world-class, state-of-the-art infrastructure in textile hubs across the country. Under SITP, out of 50 textile parks sanctioned, 30 textile parks have been completed while 20 textile parks are under implementation.  An evaluation study of SITP was carried out by Arun Jaitley National Institute of Financial Management (AJNIFM) in December 2020. The study inter alia indicated  that  the  SITP  generated  employment,  attracted  investment  and  augmented  development  of infrastructure.

(b) to (d): Details of textile parks under SITP, completed and under implementation, funds released and employment generated during last five years is as under;
