Odisha government has approved a mechanism to strengthen industry care initiative to address the issues faced by investors, officials said Monday.
Chief secretary A P Padhi has sent a letter in this regard to all departmental secretaries on Monday, they said.
Industries Department had launched a district-wise formal engagement initiative named Industry Care last month to raise awareness about business reforms and institutional mechanisms among industries and address their issues on a high priority basis.
The engagement was also aimed at facilitating the expansion of new units coming up in the state. Two meetings have been organised under this initiative with Angul and Khurda based industries so far, they said,
"Encouraged by the positive response from large industries to the first two meetings held under Industry Care initiative, the state government has institutionalised the facilitation and aftercare mechanism to ensure faster resolution of issues faced by both MSME and large industries," said Industries secretary, Sanjeev Chopra
According to the mechanism approved by the chief secretary, the Industry Care initiative will have daily district-specific meetings meetings for large industries, weekly state level facilitation cell (SLFC) meetings.
Fortnightly district-wise workshops at the level of principal secretary, Industries Department for large industries and monthly meetings at the level of additional chief secretary, Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) Department for MSME units across districts.
The monthly progress made in terms of resolution of issues shall be monitored by the State Project Monitoring Group (SPMG) headed by chief secretary every month, they said.
