GCCI presses for smooth single window

PTI, PANAJI | 19 June 2012 18:50 IST

The business community in Goa is looking at a quicker single window clearance (SWC) system for the industrial investment in the state during the forthcoming review of State Industrial Policy.

Goa Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI), which is lobbying to rectify the anomalies in the existing SWC, has said that the state government during its relook at the policy will have to weed out indiscriminate delays left over due to existing faulty SWC.

"There is a SWC in existing Industrial policy, but that single window opens into another 20 windows," GCCI President Manguirish Pai Raikar said.

The industry players have been holding dialogues with State Principal Secretary (Industries and commerce) Parimal Rai for having a better SWC. Raikar said the industrial investment in Goa will be on rise, if there are speedy clearances.

"The clearances for investments should be on mission mode. At least primary clearances should be through SWC," he said.

The Manohar Parrikar-led government has already taken up the review of the Industrial policy with meetings lined up with various stakeholders.

State Industry Minister Mahadev Naik said the government will ensure that there is conducive environment for industrial growth in the state.

"If we can simplify the procedure we will surely do it," he said.

The green industries with employment potential will be given red-carpet in the state. GCCI, an apex body of the industries in the state, along with Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI), has organised an investment summit on June 30 in Goa.

GCCI officials said the investment summit is expected to rejuvenate the industrial scenario in the state.
