Haryana Industry and Commerce Minister Rao Narbir Singh on Wednesday said the Make in Haryana Industrial Policy–2025 will serve as a strong foundation for the state’s vision of contributing to India’s journey toward a $1 trillion economy by 2047.
The new policy aims to attract investments worth Rs 5 lakh crore and generate one million new jobs in Haryana. Singh was addressing a stakeholder consultation meeting in Gurugram to discuss provisions of the draft policy.
“Haryana will play a pivotal role in fulfilling Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of a developed India by 2047. Industry has a crucial role in making the nation self-reliant and globally competitive. The government is fully committed to safeguarding your interests. At the same time, industries must focus on producing high-quality, affordable, and market-friendly products to remain competitive globally,” he said.
The minister added that Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini is equally committed to accelerating industrial growth in the state. “If industry grows, the nation grows. The government will extend all necessary support and facilities,” he assured.
He said suggestions presented by industry representatives during the consultation would be thoroughly examined and incorporated into the policy. The government, he added, is determined to provide robust infrastructure and basic facilities across all industrial areas for entrepreneurs’ convenience.Policy with New Approach Commissioner and Secretary of the Industries and Commerce Department, Dr. Amit Kumar Agrawal, said the government’s approach would move beyond just “ease of doing business” to also include “reducing the cost of doing business” and “ensuring the right to do business.”
“The new policy is designed to make Haryana the most attractive and competitive investment destination in the country,” he said. Dr. Agrawal also highlighted that 23 barriers to doing business — relating to the Pollution Control Board, labour regulations, and urban planning—have been identified and will be removed by December 31. He further noted that both Block A and Block B areas will get equal opportunities to ensure balanced growth.Dynamic and Sustainable FrameworkDirector General of the Industries and Commerce Department, Dr. Yash Garg, said the policy has been shaped through extensive consultations with stakeholders and is more flexible, dynamic, and sustainable than the 2020 industrial policy.
“The government does not intend to act merely as a regulator but as a true partner and facilitator of industry. Self-reliance is essential in the current global landscape, and this policy is designed to encourage new industries, promote innovation, enhance global competitiveness, and strengthen value chain integration,” he said. Dr. Garg also underlined that the 2020 policy successfully attracted significant investments and drove industrial expansion, but changing global dynamics required a more adaptive framework.
