The West Bengal government hopes to attract around Rs 37,000 crore investment in the state through 10 Textile Clusters or Parks under Integrated Textile Development project on PPP model over the next three years and will provide employment to 6-10 lakh people.
These parks, involving hosiery, ready-made garments and knitting, will come up at Barasat, Bankura, Metiabruz, Uluberia, Salt Lake, among other places. Most of the investments will be from private sector.
