The Telangana government's instructions to the Collectors to permit the operations of the industrial units located in rural areas, industrial estates, SEZs and export-oriented units has been appreciated by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII).
Krishna Bodanapu, Chairman, CII Telangana, highly appreciated the Government of Telangana's efforts to restart economic activity. He also said that industry was committed to working closely with the state government, and that as per the guidelines all the industrial units would follow social distancing norms, and ensure the accessibility and usage of masks and hand-wash facilities.
He also said that there was a strong need for a fiscal package for MSMEs so that they could get back to business after the lockdown was over.
Sameer Goel, Vice-Chairman, CII Telangana, appreciated the MHA's order to allow the free movement of trucks across the country. The production lines could function only when the supply chain was 100% in place, he said. This move would not only help restart business operations but also make essential items available to the public, he said.
