The offer was made by Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda in a meeting with French ambassador Francois Richier here, an official release said.
The envoy, who called on Hooda, evinced keen interest in mutual cooperation with Haryana in the field of education, urban planning and setting up industrial units.
He thanked Hooda for this offer and assured him that he would take up this proposal with the French authorities, the release said.
He said the government has set up Industrial Model Townships (IMTs) in the State equipped with all the facilities like infrastructure, water, roads, etc.
On mutual cooperation in the field of Urban Planning, Hooda said Haryana has witnessed rapid industrialisation in the recent past particularly in the NCR region therefore there is a lot of scope of mutual cooperation between Haryana and France in the field of urban planning and management.
Apart from this, sewerage management, water supply management and solid waste management are also among the other key areas where mutual cooperation between France and Haryana could go a long way, he said.
