Despite a slowdown in the auto sector, Ashok Leyland, the flagship company of the Hinduja Group, has decided to double investment in Uttaranchal from Rs 1,000 crore to Rs 2,000 crore as a part of its expansion plan. 
 
In a new plan submitted to the State Industrial Development Corporation of Uttarakhand (SIDCUL) here, Ashok Leyland said it was interested in buying another 17 acres at Pant Nagar for a manufacturing facility at an investment of Rs 1,000 crore. 
 
The company has already bought 175 acres at Pant Nagar for manufacturing commercial vehicles and engine parts. The company would be manufacturing 40,000 annually, according to sources. 
 
The company has also promised to provide employment to 2,200 persons, mostly locals. 
 
The company bought the land from the state government at Rs 1,500 per sq metre. Now, SIDCUL is planning to charge an enhanced rate of Rs 2,500 per sq metre, according to sources. A decision regarding the land allotment would be taken shortly, sources said. 
 
A slew of auto manufacturers is setting up new facilities in Uttarakhand to avail of tax benefits announced by the Centre in 2003. 
 
Tata Motors, Bajaj Auto, Hero Honda and Mahindra & Mahindra are among some of the top companies that are setting up shop in the state. 
 
Hero Honda was first off the ground with a plan for a Rs 1,200 crore plant in Haridwar. The company has bought 275 acres for the plant. 
 
Tata Motors, along with a host of its parts suppliers, is investing Rs 1,859 crore for its manufacturing facility in the Pant Nagar industrial estate. The company will be producing Ace trucks there, for which it bought 1,000 acres. 
 
Pant Nagar has also attracted an investment of Rs 500-600 crore from Bajaj Auto, which would establish a manufacturing unit for producing motorbikes. 

In recent months, two major developments at my village and nearby places...

1. Lachhima, Pithoragarh......Due to scarcity of water during "Ropai" season govt has ordered to create a Pond where rain water can be stored and can be used later for irrigation purpose . Digging of pond has been started. Workers are localites from near by places. So it has double benefit along with Water Storage , temporal employement for unemployed person....

2. Dasouli, Pithoragarh.... Govt has provided  "Poly House" for every house owner in his field. "Polly House" is a Tent Like structure having walls of Plastic(either PVC or Polyethene). People can grow Unseasonal Vegetables there. "Poly House" is free of cost. So its a major step in development of agriculture. Now most people will not have to wait for right season to grow specific type of Vegetables/fruits..

Obviously These things also been happening at other villages also coz govt jo plan provide karti hai wo for whole block or for whole district.. But i have not info about other places...

Good things are hapening in and around your village.  Such things should happen elswhere also.

स्थलों को पर्यटन से जोड़ने का नक्शा तैयार : पंत

लोहाघाट(चम्पावत)। पर्यटन मंत्री प्रकाश पंत ने बताया है कि राज्य के विभिन्न ऐतिहासिक व धार्मिक स्थलों को पर्यटन से जोड़ने के लिए पर्यटन विभाग द्वारा खाका तैयार कर लिया गया है। उन्होंने चम्पावत जिले से होकर गुजरने वाले प्राचीन कैलाश मानसरोवर यात्रा मार्ग को विकसित कर भविष्य में इसी मार्ग से तीर्थ यात्रियों की आवाजाही करवाने की बात भी कही।

स्थानीय होटल सीडर वैली में पत्रकारों से वार्ता करते हुए श्री पंत ने कहा कि सभी धार्मिक, सांस्कृतिक, अध्यात्मिक व पौराणिक स्थलों को पर्यटन से जोड़ने के लिए कलेण्डर तैयार किया जा चुका है। इन स्थलों में वर्ष भर पर्यटकों की आवाजाही सुनिश्चित करने के लिए आधारभूत सुविधाएं जुटाई जायेंगी। उन्होंने कहा कि स्कंद पुराण में वर्णित चम्पावत से होकर गुजरने वाले प्राचीन कैलाश मानसरोवर यात्रा मार्ग को विकसित कर ट्रेकिंग रूट में परिणित करने के साथ निकट भविष्य में इसी मार्ग से तीर्थ यात्रियों की आवाजाही सुनिश्चित की जायेगी। इसके अलावा मां भगवती के सभी रूपों के मंदिरों को एक सर्किट में लाया जायेगा। उन्होंने बताया कि मां पूर्णागिरी धाम को वैष्णो देवी की तर्ज पर विकसित करने के लिए सरकार ने प्रयास शुरू कर दिये है। इसे ट्रस्ट का रूप दिये जाने के लिए भी तैयारियां शुरू हो गयी हैं। पर्यटन मंत्री ने बताया कि पूर्णागिरी में भैरव मंदिर को रोपवे से जोड़ने की पहल की गयी है। श्यामलाताल में ध्यान केन्द्र स्थापित करने के अलावा यहां योग प्रशिक्षण भी दिया जायेगा। शांतिकुंज हरिद्वार के सहयोग से कुमाऊं में ऋषिकेश की तर्ज पर योग महोत्सव भी आयोजित किया जायेगा। उन्होंने माना कि चम्पावत जिले में राष्ट्रीय राजमार्ग की दशा ठीक न होने से पर्यटन व्यवसाय पर बुरा असर पड़ रहा है। उन्होंने बताया कि सरकार के प्रयासों से राज्य में आने वाले पर्यटकों की संख्या बढ़कर 2 करोड़ 21 लाख पहुंच चुकी है जबकि वर्ष 2001 में यह संख्या महज 70 लाख थी। सरकार का इरादा इस संख्या को चार गुना अधिक करने का है।
