March 05:<\/strong> The Gujarat government will be setting up 2 mega textile parks to ‘enable forward and backward integration’ in the sector. This was revealed while the state budget was presented yesterday. This project will be done as a part of the union budget announcement of setting up 7 textiles parks of such kind. This move ensures a long way for the industry to compete globally.<\/p>\n A top English language daily quoted Chintan Thaker, co-chair, ASSOCHAM Gujarat state council, as saying, \u201cMega Investment Textile Parks will make the industry more competitive at a global level and this will not just boost exports but at the back-end, it will also help generate more employment. At the same time, a single cluster will definitely help bring in more investments in the textile sector.\u201d<\/p>\n He further stated, \u201cThis will give an impetus to MSMEs in the textile sector, which is the highest employment generator after agriculture. It will help ancillary units in textiles in a big way. Moreover, the plug-and-play model for the park will aid employment generation and also give an ecosystem to exporters and domestic manufacturers.\u201d<\/p>\n
