The Union Cabinet, chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has approved 12 new project proposals under the National Industrial Corridor Development Programme (NICDP), with an estimated investment of ₹28,602 crore. These projects aim to transform India into a global manufacturing powerhouse, according to an official government release.
The new industrial areas will be strategically located across India, including sites in Khurpia (Uttarakhand), Rajpura-Patiala (Punjab), Dighi (Maharashtra), Palakkad (Kerala), Agra and Prayagraj (Uttar Pradesh), Gaya (Bihar), Zaheerabad (Telangana), Orvakal and Kopparthy (Andhra Pradesh), and Jodhpur-Pali (Rajasthan).
The 12th project, yet to be named, will likely be in Haryana or Jammu & Kashmir due to the model code of conduct in place following election announcements. These sites will host state-of-the-art industrial smart cities, designed to foster a vibrant industrial ecosystem and create regional manufacturing hubs across the country.
