PM GatiShakti was used extensively while evaluating the various proposals we received under the PM Mitra Programme and it helped us validate the selected and winning locations. This is a testament to India’s technology driven transparent governance, said Shri Piyush Goyal, Union Minister for Textiles, Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution and Commerce and Industry while virtually addressing a national conference on Geo Textiles here today.
“In line with the Hon’ble Prime Minister's vision of five F: from Farm to Fiber to Factory to Fashion to Foreign, seven mega textile parks under the PM Mitra Scheme have been announced to be set up in Tamil Nadu Telangana, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh. I would like to congratulate all the winning states,” Shri Goyal said
He said that India is the 5th largest producer of technical textiles in the whole world with a market size of nearly $22 billion, which we hope to build up to $300 billion when we turn 100 by 2047.
