Highlighting the PM Mitra Textile Park coming up near Hardoi, he said the project will create significant employment and support local artisans. “Once the park is built, youth won’t need to migrate for jobs.

The textile park is part of the PM Mega Integrated Textile Regions and Apparel (PM MITRA) initiative, with parks also set to be developed in Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Gujarat, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra.
