"Recently, we were able to sign more than 27 crore investments in the state of Karnataka in recent months and we are sure that more will follow."Romal Shetty in his impressive and passionate presentation said that Karnataka has tremendous potential to grow the business community, but if a state has to become an attractive destination, we need to ensure other areas need to be developed as well.With over 15,000 acres of place available at Vijayapura, Ballari, Dharwad, Shivamogga, Hassan Ramnagara and others, industries such as auto, textiles, pharmaceutical, machinery and equipment (including electrical), food processing, electronics and hardware, Electric vehicle cluster and more, there is great scope for growth. Other than land bank, he further emphasized the key factors such as availability of clean renewable power at a competitive cost, development industrial plug and play parks, product focused industrial clusters away from Bangalore in other districts such as Mysore, Hassan, Tumkur, Bellary, Gulbarga etc., adequate logistics infrastructure, skilled manpower, attractive incentives, availability of required resources at a competitive cost will be crucial to garner the competitive edge over the other states.It is very important to decongest Bangalore and spread the industrialization to the other districts as it is very surprising challenge to see that Bangalore is contributing to nearly 87 per cent of the state economy.K R Sekar in his Aatmrbhar analysis explained the key advantages while pointing out some of the challenges and has proposed suitable countermeasures to overcome.Devesh Agarwal emphasized the strong need for the second airport given the huge increase in the no of passengers and loss of potential opportunities and in his report he had analyzed the various possible options and challenges in finally proposing Ramanagara as a strategic location.The minister appreciated all the three presentations and assured to review with the government at all levels to take it forward.
