The upcoming PM Mitra Park in Madhya Pradesh’s Dhar district is set to transform the region’s economic landscape. The state government claims the project will attract investments worth over ₹10,000 crore and generate massive employment opportunities.
Built at an estimated cost of around ₹2,000 crore, the PM Mitra Park aims to strengthen India’s textile manufacturing ecosystem. Urban Development and district in-charge minister Kailash Vijayvargiya said the project will create direct employment for nearly 50,000 people. Another 1.5 lakh people will benefit through indirect jobs.
The park will offer end-to-end facilities for the textile sector. These include yarn production, fabric processing, spinning, weaving, dyeing, designing, and garment manufacturing. Officials said the integrated setup will help industries reduce costs and improve efficiency.
Vijayvargiya also highlighted Dhar district’s rapid progress over the past two years. He said the district has achieved notable growth in religious tourism, industry, agriculture, healthcare, education, and infrastructure.
