KCCI seeks Electronic City, EV hub in Hubballi-Dharwad

HUBBALLI The Karnatak Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI) has urged the State government to establish an Electronic City and a dedicated Electric Vehicle (EV) manufacturing hub on about 200 acres of land in Hubballi-Dharwad to accelerate industrial development in North Karnataka. In a press release issued here, KCCI honorary secretary Uday Revankar said that the KCCI is concerned over the slow pace of industrial development in Dharwad district.

The IT Park and Aryabhat Park have not achieved their intended potential, while the high cost of land at the FMCG Industrial Area in Mummigatti is discouraging prospective investors, he said. KCCI president Sandeep Bidasaria recently met Minister for Large and Medium Industries M.B.

Patil in Bengaluru and submitted a representation seeking rationalisation of industrial land prices and investor-friendly infrastructure.
