Thursday, 04 March 2021 | PNS | Chandigarh

Stating that the Central Government has accorded approval to a project to set up a 'Common Facility Centre' in Karnal, Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Wednesday said that the State will contribute significantly in promoting Ayurveda in the country.

He said that the establishment of this 'Common Facility Centre' will help in the production of quality Ayurveda products like immunity booster tablets, syrups, ointments, creams, oils, personal hygiene products, adding that the State Government is actively working towards promoting the growth of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSME) through the cluster approach of the MSME Department. The State Government is also implementing a visionary Mini Cluster Scheme for enhancing the competitiveness of its micro-units.

Under this scheme, over 50 MSME clusters have been identified and are being developed across Haryana, he added.

Khattar said that the CFC project will be constructed at a cost of Rs. 15 crore. The project which will have a state of the art herbal extraction plant, an R and D facility, a quality control lab among other components will benefit over 200 micro and small Ayurveda products manufacturing units in and around Karnal, he said, adding that this will be the first cluster project of its kind approved by the Central Government under the MSME flagship scheme.

He said that this project of 'Common Facility Centre' is also expected to generate employment for more than 500 persons.  Secretary, Union Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises BB Swain also appreciated the efforts of the State in the field of MSME and hoped that the establishment of 'Common Facility Centre' in Haryana is an important step towards promoting Ayurveda across the country.
