The Gujarat government on Friday said it wishes to develop the Mandal-Becharaji Special Investment Region (SIR) as a model industrial developed city across the nation.

Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani made this statement after virtually inaugurating the Mandal-Becharaji SIR Development Authority’s building, built at Rs 5.44 crore at Hansalpur.

The SIR where Suzuki Motors Corporation and Honda Scooters have started their plants is known as an automobile hub of Gujarat.

Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani has expressed his desire to establish the entire area of the Mandal Becharaji Special Investment Region SIR, which is developing as an automobile hub, as the best model of the industrial developed city across the nation, according to an official release.

The state government intends to have this SIR with development facilities by finalising the town planning scheme for advanced roads and well-planned development at Rs 200 crore, he said.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2012 took initiative to develop this area as a SIR, which has today emerged as an automobile hub.

Many motor car manufacturers, including Maruti Suzuki and Honda, have chosen to start their plants here, he said.

The chief minister said Gujarat has developed Mandal Becharaji SIR as the best option for investment by the industries.

In addition to the Mandal Becharaji SIR, we have also developed PCPIR (Petroleum, Chemicals and Petrochemical Investment Region) in Dahej, he said.

Gujarat has become a land of opportunity for industrial development and also a leading state providing new employment opportunities, added Rupani.
