In the reorganization of districts across the state including Indore, Indore has got the highest number of districts.
The point of discussion is Pithampur. The distance of Pithampur from Indore is 28 km, while the district headquarters Dhar is 43 km from Pithampur. Now in the new exercise, if Pithampur is included in Indore district, then the growth figures of Indore in the state will directly increase by 10 to 14%.
Till now, Indore is at the first place in the state in export figures.
According to the export report of January 2024, Indore has the highest export in the state at 27.34% (i.e. Rs 18,014 crore). At number two
Dhar is with 11024 crores. If Pithampur, the biggest exporter in its place, is included in Indore, then 10 thousand crores worth of exports will be added here and it will increase to 41%.
Expert: This is a good proposal, these solutions will also be there… Administrative problems will be solved, issues like delay in decision making will end
Dr. Darshan Kataria, Joint President of Pithampur Industrial Area and President of MP Mall Manufacturers Association, says that all the enterprises and employees come and go from Indore. The railway station and airport also use Indore. Including Pithampur in Indore would be a good step. According to former city planner DL Goyal, only Indore will benefit from the delimitation. Right now all things are connected to Indore.
The load is on Indore and the revenue goes to Dhar district, hence this should be done first.
There are many other points which will benefit entrepreneurs and investors.
The administration will also not face any difficulty in taking decisions here. Problems like getting permission to remove encroachment will also not get stuck between the districts. There will be no delay or delay
If the industry department starts any administrative project, it has to coordinate with two districts. Even for the process of land acquisition, correspondence and permissions have to be taken from the administrations of two districts. Pithampur Sector-7 is an example of this. Here some villages are from Dhar district and some from Indore. In such a situation, due to two districts, there is a lot of confusion in all facilities including electricity and water.
* Permissions- The process of land allotment has to be taken from the MPIDC office located in Indore. Then one has to depend on Dhar district for local permissions and facilities. The staff in Dhar is not as strong as in Indore. There is unnecessary delay in getting permissions. Land disputes, encroachment When a project takes place in two districts, the officials postpone it by making excuses of the other district or staff. Being in the same district will fix the responsibility. Investors will not face any problem. On the other hand, encroachment on valuable government land, arbitrary approval of permissions at the Panchayat level will not be possible. Land acquisition and disputes will also be resolved on a single forum. The proposed Economic Corridor branding will benefit the current branding for cleanliness, smart city,
Indore has this edge due to being a medical education hub. The industry will get the benefit of a bond name. In such a situation, the lack of coordination will end. MPIDC has to do this.
In every project, we have to talk to different officials of Indore and Dhar. Unnecessary projects get delayed or are ignored. It will be easy to understand the needs of the industry – Currently two perspectives work together to understand the needs of the industry.
