The proposed National Manufacturing and Investment Zones (NMIZ) would catalyse the manufacturing sector growth in the state. The zones offer a ‘business-friendly’ ecosystem with flexible labour laws and quality infrastructure tuned to encourage co-location and networking of industrial units, said AP industries minister Kanna Lakshminarayana.

Inaugurating a CII conference on ‘Andhra Pradesh as an emerging growth engine — the way forward’ here on Wednesday, the minister said the secondary sector growth was necessary to absorb the migration of people from agriculture.
