The Andhra Pradesh (AP) State Government is geared up to establish a world-class mega textile park near Raptadu in the Anantapur district and is willing to complete this project as soon as possible.
As per media reports, YSRC Raptadu legislator Thopudurthi Prakash Reddy has said that the AP Industrial Infrastructure Corporation Limited (APIIC) has already earmarked 171.17 acres of land in Raptadu assembly constituency to set up the mega textile park.
He said that Andhra Pradesh will tap a major chunk of these figures by establishing the state-of-the-art mega textile park in the Anantapur district.
Besides, he also added that the leading manufacturers in the segment from Tiruppur, Rajasthan, Gurugram and other parts of the country have evinced their interest in establishing manufacturing units in the park.
He also said that the Andhra Pradesh Textile Policy 2018-23, issued by the previous government, had to be set right by the YSRC Government to move forward with the plan.
Apart from Brandix Apparel Park in Visakhapatnam, there are, so far, very few big garment manufacturing units in the state. Notably, just a few months back, Aditya Birla Group had started the garment factory construction in the state.
