UP to create land banks in all 75 districts to boost investment

Uttar Pradesh Industries and Infrastructure Department will create land banks in all the 75 districts of the state. The state government has directed District Magistrates to identify land in their areas for the purpose. The officials have been told to earmark plots of 15 acres or more for investors to set up their units. The idea behind the exercise is to ensure that the state’s bid to become a one trillion-dollar economy benefits small districts as well.
