Chandigarh, May 28 (KNN) Haryana's Finance and Industries Minister Abhimanyu has launched online registration and regulation of societies, registration of boilers and renewal and filing of annual return by MSMEs.
 
While launching the online services on Wednesday here, he said that the workflow of all the services would be visible online.
 
The services offered online are registration, renewal and clearance for setting up of boilers, new industries under the Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) and registration of records of cooperatives societies across the state. 


Industries commissioner Devender Singh said that there are one lakh MSMEs, 96,000 cooperative societies and around 4000 boilers registered with Haryana Industries department. Hence, 2 lakh stake holders will have direct benefit and they will neither be required to make rounds of various departments for the purpose of clearance and licensing. 


The initiative has been taken to maintain transparency and accountability in the larger interest of about two lakh stakeholders, who would be benefited with these services, Abhimanyu said.
 
Further, the Haryana government has also sought for suggestions from the public and other stakeholders about its new Industrial Policy, which promises to enhance ease of doing business in the state by cutting down on red tapism. 


"The draft of the new Industrial Policy has been uploaded on the website of the Industries Department (www.haryanaindustries.gov.in)," Abhimanyu said. 
 

He said that the draft Industrial Policy was uploaded on Tuesday with the approval of Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar and it would remain as such on the website for a week to seek suggestions, if any, of the stakeholders.
 
Describing the new Industrial Policy "as the most progressive policy in the country", Abhimanyu said it is being tested on well-defined parameters and the government is trying to increase confidence of investors.
 
Minister told reporters that the new policy is aimed at identifying industrially backward blocks where industrial units could be set up.
 
He said the government is working with the motto "from red tape to red carpet" as the government eyes investments worth Rs 1 lakh crore.
 
To improve the ease of doing business, the draft 'Industrial and Investment Promotion Policy-2015' aims to push for speedy time-bound clearances.
It would also lay emphasis on skill development as per the changing scenario, Abhimanyu said, adding that 17 departments of the state government are working on skill development in a mission mode. (KNN Bureau)
