Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy has directed officials concerned to identify land parcels for developing new Industrial clusters. They should be from 500 to 1000 acres, near Hyderabad within 50-100 km distance from the International Airport and national and highways, between the Outer Ring Road (ORR) and the proposed Regional Ring Road (RRR).

The Chief Minister gave the instructions during a meeting with senior officials on industrial development in the State yesterday. An official release stated that the chief minister made it clear that the lands that will be acquired for industrial development should be dry and non-cultivable lands to ensure that farmers were not put to loss and the scope for pollution could be minimised.

The Chief Minister directed the officials to submit information pertaining to the extent of lands allotted for setting up industries and the extent that remained unutilised. Officials were asked to submit a comprehensive report on the extent of land allotted for industrial development in different areas, the number of industries that came up in the allotted land and the present status of those industries.
