IT Park has been proposed to be built in Belagavi at a cost of Rs 774 crore. This will be discussed with the Union Defense Minister. IT MLA Abhay Patil said at a press conference that the construction of the park would provide employment to 1 lakh unemployed.
Earlier as well Patil has been following up with Defense minister Rajnath Singh in Bengaluru and pressed that the Defense land may be handed over to the state for setting up a high-tech IT and BT park in Belagavi.
The defense department is in the possession of Karnataka State Government-owned Land survey number 1304 to 1349 located in Belagavi, Karnataka as the land is owned by the Government of Karnataka and the land was leased for 100 years to the Defense Department in the year 1860 by then the ruling government, the lease expired in the year 1960. But the Defense Department has not released the possession of the said land even after the expiry of the lease.
This land is adjoining NH 4 near after Hindlaco (entrance near KLE hospital Opposite side)
The Defense Minister had responded positively and said the land will be handed over as soon as possible, but nothing in actuality has happened as of now.
It may be recalled that Abhay Patil had moved a private member’s Motion in the Karnataka State Assembly to Set up an IT park in the Karnataka State Government Owned Land Survey number 1304 to 1349, the motion was accepted by the State Government.
I hope our local MLA takes care of ensuring the land does become a gift to large IT firms coming from Bangalore or Delhi or Pune. The local IT firms must be considered as contenders to set up their facilities. If required they must be given incentives and preference in the allotment. Otherwise, this has all the colors of ending up as a real estate profiteering for some high and wealthy folks.
ಇದು ಬಹಳ ಮಹತ್ವದ ಹೆಜ್ಜೆ . ಬೆಳಗಾವಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಐಟಿ ಪಾರ್ಕ್ ಕನಸು ನನಸಾದಲ್ಲಿ ಇದರ ಸಂಪೂರ್ಣ ಶ್ರೇಯಸ್ಸು ಮಾನ್ಯ ಶಾಸಕರಾದ ಶ್ರೀ ಅಭಯ್ ಪಾಟೀಲ್ ಅವರಿಗೆ ಸಲ್ಲಬೇಕು. ಅವರ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನ ಯಶಸ್ವಿಯಾಗಲಿ ಹಾಗೂ ಈ ಭಾಗದ ವಿದ್ಯಾರ್ಥಿಗಳಿಗೆ ಉದ್ಯೋಗದ ಭಾಗ್ಯದ ಬಾಗಿಲು ತೆರೆಯಲಿ ಹಾಗೂ ಬೆಳಗಾವಿ ಜಿಲ್ಲೆ ಸರ್ವತೋಮುಖ ಅಭಿವೃದ್ಧಿಯಾಗಲಿ ಎಂದು ಆಶಿಸುತ್ತೇನೆ.
Abhay Patil Sir when take an work he definitely completes without fail. Belagavi people have full trust on him. Thank you MLA sir.. Bega idu madri Blore bitti navu Belagavi ge band biduttevi..
It awesome work if happened in belgaum.by initiation of efforts by MLA ABP
For me, Let the Authorities concentrate & Develop the Existing City in the name of “SMART” and complete the existing Projects,,,
People ( after seeing comments) become too biased or political. Getting a land-bank is not at all priority of brining IT to a City. Please know that it is a knowledge economy. You have enough past things to learn from.
Can anyone come out clean on what happened to Desnur IT park? Who planned and got it sanctioned, what is its state? Enough tax payers money has been spent on making roads & gutters… literally money down the drains.
Take example of IT park at Hubli or even Infy campus at Hubli. Has anyone done a study as to why these projects are languishing?
It is easy to grab land and destroy ‘lung space’ of a city. It is another feet to bring IT- park to city that can grow.
