Calling employment generation both in rural and urban area as one of his priorities, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari has said that the micro, small and medium enterprise (MSME) sector offers huge potential and the government is ready to come out with special policies to promote import-substitute products. He said MSMEs have huge employment potential and the government is especially looking to promote products that could be import-substitute.
Urging investors from Singapore to tap huge opportunities that India offers, Gadkari said the government is building 22 green expressways which will have investments of Rs 10 lakh crore. He also said Dwarka Expressway, which is to be built at Rs 10,000 crore, will be expedited. He also informed that 250 road side facilities and 250 petrol pumps are planned besides logistics parks and smart cities, among others, which offer huge investment opportunities.
Talking about the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), the Minister said the government is looking at financial models for a joint venture with the NHAI to address any funding issues. He also said massive work has been done on Ganga and its cleaning will be done by March 2020.
