Infrastructure and support services:
| The government will strive to improve general infrastructure of the state. In respect of infrastructure for industries, the policy emphasises the following : |
| * |
Development of modern industrial areas and estates, growth centres, Integrated Infrastructure Development Centres (IID) etc. will be done in a time bound manner. These focal points of industry will meet all the basic requirements of a competitive industrial environment. An action plan with specific implementation model and time frame will be adopted. |
| * |
Operational management of the major industrial estates will be rationalised, involving local industrialists through a suitable local self managed model both for development works and management of the estates including regulation of power and water supply. |
| * |
The State Government will encourage private sector participation in infrastructure development and such private sector participation will be treated as an industry for the purpose of availing incentives. The Government will also facilitate acquisition of land for such private sector initiatives. |
| * |
Efforts will be made to ensure that the power supply within industrial areas, estates, IIDCs, etc. is regular, reliable and of good quality. |
| * |
Private sector investment in generation and distribution of regular power supply in industrial areas, estates, IIDCs etc. will be actively encouraged. The government will provide necessary support for such ventures on a case-to-case basis to assure their sustainability. |
| * |
Micro-hydel projects are already open for private sector investment. A separate policy on the subject has been announced and implemented by the Power Development Department of the government. |

Institutional/Commercial Bank funding
Industrial Policy 2004 recognizes that Financial Institutions/Commercial Banks have to play an important role in the industrial development of the State. An environment has to be created to arrest the present trend of flight of capital from the State. The procedures presently followed have not withstood the test of time. There have been glaring instance of delay and under-financing of projects resulting in cost and time over run. It will also be necessary to strengthen the state owned Financial Institutions. Moving in this direction, the government will adopt the following course of action :
| * |
The present arrangement of credit flow monitoring through State Level Banker’s Committee (SLBC) and State Level Inter Institutional Committee (SLIIC) forums will be actively utilized. |
| * |
State owned development financial institutions shall be reoriented to facilitate availing of refinance facilities from national level institutions optimally; and, encouraged to raise finance from the market. |
| * |
Divisional and district level co-ordination committees will be constituted to monitor expeditious settlement of the loan cases within prescribed time limit. |
