Budget evokes mixed reaction from industries, Chamber of Commerce
The HinduThe Mysuru Industries’ Association has dubbed the 2023-24 State Budget as disappointing and lacking in vision. MIA president Vasu, who is a former Congress MLA and was denied a ticket to contest from Chamaraja constituency, said the budget has failed to respond to the requirements of the industry and listed a slew of demands that were not met. He said the amount allocated to Kidwai unit in Mysuru was ‘‘not sufficient to procure even a single diagnostic equipment’’ and dubbed the budget as disappointing. However, the MSME Council General Secretary Suresh Kumar Jain said the budget was a mixed bag and described it as balanced. The proposal to establish common facilitation centres under a PPP model for cluster development of industries will help MSMEs, said Mr. Jain.
