Minister for Public Works and Belagavi district in-charge Minister, Satish Jarkiholi, has said that the State government was taking steps to establish an IT park in Belagavi with the objective of creating employment opportunities for local youth.
Chairing a meeting at the Belagavi Urban Development Authority (BUDA) office on Saturday, Mr. Jarkiholi directed BUDA officials to prepare a detailed plan for the proposed IT park, including the identification of suitable land, infrastructure, and other facilities.
He said many young people from Belagavi were moving to other districts and States in search of employment owing to limited local opportunities. The proposed IT park would help generate jobs in information technology and allied sectors within the city, he said.
The Minister directed officials to expedite the preparatory work and ensure that the required infrastructure and facilities were incorporated into the plan.
