Revanth's single-minded focus gets Lenskart for Telangana
Deccan ChronicleHYDERABAD: In the next few months, Telangana could boast of having the world’s largest eyewear factory in Hyderabad. A hawk-eyed squad in the Chief Minister’s Office keeping an eye on investment moves across the country alerted Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy about Lenskart’s proposal. Another factor that swayed Lenskart’s decision in favour of Hyderabad was the state government’s decision to establish the Skills University, which will create required manpower for the factory. While Telangana has bagged several major projects bringing `2 lakh crore worth investments in the last one year, the Lenskart project would stand out as it is the world’s largest eyewear factory and it will have a positive ripple-effect in the investor community. In the last year, the minister said the government has brought several hitech projects to the state, which include Cognizant’s new facility that would hire 15,000 people, Premier Energies’ advanced ingot and silicon wafer facility, Azad Engineering plant that makes superalloys, London Stock Exchange’s tech centre of excellence among others.
