Haryana to sensitize its lower bureaucracy to respond to industry needs: Principal Secretary, I&C

New Delhi, Aug 9 (KNN) Principal Secretary, Industries & Commerce, Haryana, Devender Singh has said that with new regime in place, several pro-active measures have been notified for the industrial development of the State, admitting that the notified decisions have not been percolated down the lower rung of bureaucracy and, therefore, their implementation is stuck up.

However, he added that industrial applications if registered on prescribed portals and websites; it becomes the responsibility of the administration to facilitate their logical execution as it is closely monitoring such applications in time bound manner.

He was addressing a session in PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry recently.

Singh said, “The complaint has been coming to state administration by those claimants that have physically submitted their applications to concern department as such applications are not closely monitored”.

Therefore, if the applications for setting up industries in Haryana are registered with the concerned portal and websites, it becomes the responsibility of the state administration for their faster disposal and in case if such applications are found inadequate in any manner, the administration seeks information and clarity to entertain their quicker disposal.

Managing Director, HSIDC, Sudhir Rajpal who also spoke on the occasion, emphasized that closely 60 per cent of the industrial plots in Haryana at its different locations are lying vacant for suitable buyers and therefore, the corporation would soon come out with e-auction policy for their disposal.

According to him, the e-auction policy is very transparent and is without any pitfalls and even if it does not attract buyers as intended, possibly the Government of Haryana might come out with alternate pricing policy for such industrial landscapes so that these are disposed off for the faster industrialization and economic activities of the State.
