Indore, Jan 13 (KNN) Madhya Pradesh's Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) Minister Om Prakash Saklecha said that there is no shortage of land for industries in the state.

While addressing the industrialists' felicitation function organised by Association of Industries of Madhya Pradesh (AIMP) on Wednesday he said, ‘’ the government does not have shortage of land for industries and under the ‘Ease of Doing Business, getting permissions is becoming simpler.’’

He further said that industrial development will not be possible till the industry and the government move in the same direction.
