The Tamil Nadu Cabinet has approved investment proposals worth ₹34,237 crore to boost industrial growth in the State. These projects are expected to create thousands of jobs and improve economic development across different regions.
Industries Minister T.R.B. Rajaa said the government is giving special focus to the blue economy, which includes activities related to the sea such as fishing, ports, shipbuilding, and marine industries. As part of this plan, the State is encouraging shipbuilding and ship repair projects. This will help modernise the sector and provide better income and job opportunities for fishermen and coastal communities.
The approved investments cover many sectors, including manufacturing, logistics, renewable energy, electronics, and food processing. Several projects will be set up in industrial parks and less-developed districts to ensure balanced growth.
The Minister said these decisions show Tamil Nadu’s commitment to attracting investors, strengthening infrastructure, and becoming a leading industrial and maritime hub in India.
