The proposed Mega Textile Park in Kalaburagi district is progressing rapidly, with significant development milestones already achieved, said Karnataka Rural Development and Panchayat Raj, IT and Biotechnology Minister and district in-charge Priyank Kharge.
Speaking at a review meeting held in Bengaluru through video conference with officials from the Textiles Department, KIADB, investors, and district administration, the minister said the project is moving forward in a structured and coordinated manner.
He informed that nearly 1,000 acres of land have been identified for the textile park in Nadisinnur and Honna Kiranagi villages. According to him, the project has already received strong interest from investors even before its official launch, with eight major investors submitting proposals totaling around ₹1,700 crore.
The minister added that the identified land has already been converted for industrial use, and necessary clearances from the Forest Department have been obtained. He further stated that environmental clearance for the project was secured in October last year, clearing a major regulatory hurdle.
Priyank Kharge said that the master plan, financial structuring, and detailed project report for the Mega Textile Park have been completed. He also noted that three major board meetings have been conducted to ensure smooth execution and oversight of the project.
He expressed confidence that the textile park would become a major industrial hub for the Kalyana Karnataka region. According to him, the project is expected to generate thousands of employment opportunities and significantly contribute to regional economic growth and industrial development.
Officials including Government Secretary of the Textiles Department Rohini Sindhuri, KIADB CEO Govinda Reddy, Kalaburagi Deputy Commissioner Mohammed Ikram Shareef, and other senior officers participated in the review meeting. The government reiterated its commitment to accelerating infrastructure development and attracting further investments to the region.
