The Uttar Pradesh Government plans to set up 11 private textile parks across the state with the first of these parks to be launched in Shamli district with an investment of Rs 726 crore.
The park will help boost local production, reduce dependency on other states and China for raw materials, and strengthen the textile sector within Uttar Pradesh. Of the proposed 11, six will be developed in Gorakhpur, Mau, Bhadohi, Aligarh, Baghpat, and Shamli. Alok Kumar, Principal Secretary of Handloom and Textiles, highlights, these parks will support local manufacturing and cut reliance on imported materials. Additionally, the government will also develop a large-scale PM Mitra Park on 1,000 acre in Lucknow.
The Shamli textile park will be developed by Lonex Textile Park with an investment of Rs 600 crore. The park will be developed by state’s Approval Committee under the Uttar Pradesh Textile and Garmenting Policy-2022. Slated to be operational by Dec’25, the park will create approximately 5,000 direct and indirect jobs.
Located on 26.75 acre in Jhinjhana village, Kairana tehsil, the Shamli textile park will host 17 production units dedicated to weaving, dyeing, printing, and garmenting. The site will include an administrative building, bank/ATM, training and testing center, rest house, canteen, and first aid facilities. Additionally, the park will feature sustainable infrastructure, including a zero liquid discharge system, a combined effluent treatment plant (CETP), boiler, water and steam distribution, power systems, and a weighbridge.
