Industries Minister Jagadish Shettar said that there is no need for the entrepreneurs to wait for long durations to get approval for their projects in future. As per the new industrial policy, they can get government approval as early as possible.
Speaking to reporters here, on Tuesday, he said, "No objection certificates and permission for extension of units will be given on priority. There is no need to visit government offices. The work can be started by submitting a self-declaration affidavit. Amendments will be brought to the norms and the entrepreneurs should make use of the opportunities." he said.
A state-level meeting is being held every month, to resolve the issues faced by industrialists in Bengaluru. The deputy commissioner will be directed to hold similar meetings every month in the district-level. Industries will not be centralised in Bengaluru. Steps will be taken to establish them in Tier II and III cities, he assured.
