Foundation stone was laid for the construction of a hi-tech textile training centre at Bandalli village in Yadgir district identified as one of the backward districts of the state by the Nanjundappa Committee.
The stone laying ceremony was done by the Textiles and Ports Minister as well as district in-charge Baburao Chinchansur on Saturday. On this occasion, Mr. Chinchansur said that it was because of former Union Minister Mallikarjun Kharge’s efforts that the textile training centre was coming up here.
The training centre would be come up on five acres of land in the village which will involve an investment to the tune of Rs. 13 crore.
The proposed project would be completed within one year. The training would be provided to eligible candidates to enable them to get jobs in the proposed textile park which would be established in 1,000 acres of land in the Kadechur-Badiyal industrial hub in the district shortly.
The state government is already in the process of establishing textile park which is expected to improve condition of cotton farmers and weavers, and also create employment for a large number of people.
In addition, the government is also planning to develop smaller textile parks at different places in Ballari, Chamarajanagar and Vijayapura districts.
