With the start of unlock phase-1, the economic activities suspended so
far in Rajasthan due to the Covid-19 lockdown have resumed.
According
to Additional Chief Secretary Industries, Dr Subodh Agarwal, "Hero
Motors has started manufacturing 600 vehicles per day in the state,
whereas in Honda Group, production of 200 two-wheelers and 100
four-wheelers has started."
The use of innovations by many MSME
units of the state spells a good sign for the industrial scenario, while
most of the large units of Kota, Bhilwara, Bharatpur, Bhiwadi, Bikaner,
Chittodgarh, Jodhpur, Jaipur, Ajmer etc have also started production.
The
production has also started in several large units including cement,
textiles, stone, oil, food processing, fertilizer, chemical and glass,
said Agarwal while addressing a review meet on Wednesday night through
video-conference from the Secretariat.
He said that industrial
production has started in almost all major sectors in the state bringing
the economic activities back on track with the coordinated efforts and
participation of the state government.
Agarwal said that the
lockdown has changed the circumstances and directed officers to build
entrepreneurs' confidence, cooperate in getting benefits of government
packages and make coordinated efforts to better the industrial scenario
of the state by having dialogue with them. He directed to ensure
coordination between industries and local workers to solve labour
problems.
Managing Director of RIICO, Ashutosh Pednekar said that
45 per cent of the units in the RIICO industrial areas have started
production with 28 per cent of the workforce.
Industries
Commissioner Muktanand Agrawal said that production has started in more
than 80 per cent of the MSMEs, which is around 440 out of 547 units
operating in the state. At the same time, about 30 per cent of MSME
units have been engaged in production. He said that in the Japanese
zone, production has started in 38 out of 45 units.
