Telangana moots Board to clear mega project proposals.

The Telangana Government has proposed to amend the law to introduce a single-window to give approvals to industries. State Legislative Affairs Minister T Harish Rao introduced the Amendment Bill in the Assembly recently.

The amendment (Telangana State Industrial Project Approval and Self-certification System) seeks to set up State and district-level nodal agencies to scrutinise and approve the proposals to set up industries.

While District Collectors would head the district-level committees, the Secretary (Industries) would head the State-level body.

A Special Board to facilitate infrastructure projects would be set up under the chairmanship of the Chief Secretary to clear Mega projects. The board would give preliminary projects within 15 days.
