OBJECTIVES OF POLICY

With a view to take advantage of the liberalised economic scenario in the country, and also to keep pace with developments in the national industrial sector, Government of Meghalaya has decided to frame a new Industrial Policy. The Objectives of this new policy are as follows: -

  • Generate employment opportunities for the local people in the industries and allied sectors.

  • Develop human resources and bring about improvements in the quality of life by promoting industries in sectors where the state has comparative advantage.

  • Achieve a balanced and growth oriented development covering the entire state through promotion of village and small scale industries.

  • Create a conducive environment for industrial development by creation of the basic Infrastructural facilities and by setting up of industrial areas, growth centre and export promotion industrial park.

  • Encourage the setting up of selective medium and large industries by utilising the resource base of the state thereby ensuring sustainable industrial growth but compatible with ecological imperatives and hence encourage positive efforts towards the regeneration of the environment.

  • Provide preference to local Entrepreneurship in setting up of large, medium and small-scale units.

  • Promote local interests through joint ventures with external investors so as to facilitate technology transfer and capital flow by a package of suitable incentives.

  • Encourage need ? based development of local entrepreneurial skills through intensive motivation and training programmes at district, Sub-division and block levels.

  • Provide guidance to prospective entrepreneurs by building up a data bank of project-profiles and other connected information.

  • Simplify rules and procedures by providing a single-window clearance facility at the District Levels for the Small Scale Sector and at the State Level for Medium and Large Scale Industries.

  • Promote the setting up of ancillary units for catering to the requirements of large and medium scale industries.

  • Identify sick units that can be made viable and provide a comprehensive package of assistance for their revival.

  • Promote and encourage high-value, low-volume products, in view of the transportation-bottlenecks in the State.

  • Encourage setting up of export-oriented, Agro based, Mineral-based, Horticultural based and Electronic units as thrust area.
