Bengaluru doesn’t need more industries; time to shift to Tier-II cities like Mangaluru: HDK

Mangaluru, Aug 29: Stating that the capital of Karnataka has already reached the saturation level of industrialisation, chief minister H D Kumaraswamy has vowed to take necessary steps to set up more industries in Tier-II cities like Mangaluru.

“It is time to impose restrictions on setting up of new industries in Bengaluru as the city is facing too much pressure. My intention is to incentivise industries to shift to Tier-II cities,” the CM was quoted as saying by news agencies.

Kumaraswamy, who completes 100 days in office on August 30, said there is a lot of difference between the JD(S)-BJP coalition government 12 years ago, and the present one. “While they are doing their job criticising the government as an opposition party, I was disheartened by discouragement coming from unexpected quarters. But I will ensure the government is stable and completes its term,” he added.

On the confusion over nationalised banks initially agreeing to waive the interest component on farm loans and backing off recently, Kumaraswamy said he will not make banks wait for four years to reimburse the amount, and would do so by July next.
