The Tamilnadu government said this initiative has been taken by the Chief Minister in order to enable the State's textile industry to get more investments so that it could create more jobs.
According to an official release, weaving is the second largest job provider for people in villages of the State, after agriculture. 'The Tamilnadu government led by Jayalalithaa has been taking various initiatives to give boost to the textile sector by backing the introduction of many latest technologies and new ideas,' the release said.
Stating that a consolidated textile park scheme is being implemented in Tamilnadu since 2005, the release said the idea behind the scheme is to ensure that the textile industry in the State witnessed growth, by setting up new parks and bringing fresh investments.
'The Chief Minister has now given approval to provide susbidy to textile parks, not exceeding Rs nine crore, to fuel the growth further,' the release said and added that she has also ordered to set up a monitoring committee to supervise the scheme.
Only in December, Jayalalithaa issued an order to allot Rs 127.40 crore to 15 common effluent treatment plants in Tirupur region.
It was finally decided that installing latest equipment at dyeing units would address the issue. Hence a policy decision was taken to allot Rs 200 crore as interest-free loan to 20 units (Rs 10 crore each). Following this, the Chief Minister has ordered to release Rs 127.40 crore as credit, a release said. The allocation would help in achieving the zero discharge target, benefiting both farmers and the dyeing units, it said.
It has been decided to adopt either the system followed on experimental basis at Arulpuram Tamilnadu Water Investment Corporation Limited or the Nano effluent treatment system being followed in Gujarat, it added, expressing hope that the decision would make thousands of employees in the dyeing units, farmers in Tirupur region and their family members happy.
The waste let out from 754 dyeing units and 20 common effluent treatment plants mixed with Noyyal river and other water bodies meant for irrigation. Hence, based on a case filed by the farmers’ federation, the High Court ordered setting up of common effluent treatment plants in 1998.
