Nagercoil: The Government has allotted Rs.15 crore for setting up of a rubber industrial park at Chenbagaramanputhur in Kanyakumari district.
The preliminary work for the establishment of park would commence at the earliest, said the Tourism Minister, N. Suresh Rajan.
The Minister along with the Collector, Dev Raj Dev, inspected the proposed site for the park on Friday. Later, he said that land acquisition would be completed within a month.
As the Government had already acquired 140 acres, the preliminary work such as land levelling and project implementation would be started soon.
Since rubber was a thriving industry in the district, as many as 135 small industrial units had registered themselves with the Government. Manufacturers of rubber gloves and rubber-based accessories, companies, which tread rubber for automobile tyres were among the units that would start functioning in the industrial park.
Lightweight furniture could be produced from rubber logs after seasoning the trees, said the Minister.
He pointed out that Kanyakumari district produced worlds-class rubber and hence, its entrepreneurs would be greatly benefited by the park. Moreover, 1,000 people would be directly employed by the implementation of the project.
