Bhubaneswar: Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi said that the State government aims to create 3.5 lakh employment opportunities in the State in the next five years.

The Chief Minister emphasized to focus on employment-generating sectors while reviewing the progress of the industrial sector of the State at the Lok Seva Bhawan today.

In the meeting, Hemant Sharma, Principal Secretary of industries, made a presentation about the progress made in setting up of industries in various sectors. He informed that since 2016 while 989 applications have been received for setting up industries in the state,674 projects have been approved by the Single Window Authority. Out of them, land has been handed over to 352 projects, he added.

Apart from this, work has commenced for setting up 183 projects while 74 projects have been operationalized.

Similarly, there are 12 foreign investment proposals in the state. Sharma said that efforts are underway by the Industries Department to implement 41 important investment proposals.

The Chief Minister said that there is a huge opportunity for setting up industries in the state. He opined that it is necessary to expedite all the processes in this regard and provide appropriate opportunities to the industrial organizations at the government level and all the relevant departments of the government extend cooperation to fulfil all their needs.

Industries Minister Sampad Chandra Swain, Chief  Secretary Manoj Ahuja, Additional Chief Secretary to Chief Minister Nikunj Bihari Dhal, Principal Secretary of Finance Department Saswat Mishra, Managing Director of IPICOL Bhupinder Singh Poonia and senior officials of the Industries Department were present in the meeting.
