      PREFACE

      The Industrial Policy outlined in this document has been prepared bearing in mind the constraints, strengths and potential for industrial development in the State of Uttaranchal. The strategy detailed in the Policy aims at ensuring rapid, balanced and sustainable industrial development of Uttaranchal. Special emphasis has been paid to the revival and growth of traditional industries with a view to ensuring the economic development of the remote and hill areas of the State. Development of infrastructure, enhanced private sector participation, human resource development, expansion of marketing facilities and above all protection of the environment have been identified as areas of focus. Importantly, this first ever policy for industrial development of this area, is the outcome of a consultative process involving industry associations, concerned government departments and organizations and public representatives. Above all, this policy endeavours to establish an industry friendly environment in the State with the State government playing the role of a facilitator in industrial development.

      Uttaranchal, the 27th State of India, came into being on 9th November, 2000. The main objective for the creation of this new State was to ensure rapid economic development of this area. Various factors have contributed to the economic backwardness of Uttaranchal, one of the foremost being slow industrial growth. The reasons for this include hilly and difficult terrain; gaps in infrastructure; lack of connectivity; problems of raw materials availability; limited access to markets and, most importantly, the absence of a specific policy for industrial development in the area keeping in view its special conditions. It is in this context that an Industrial policy for the State of Uttaranchal is being formulated.
