Koppala Toys Cluster Will Bring In 40,000 Jobs To Karnataka: Yediyurappa

Karnataka chief minister B.S. Yediyurappa’s tweet comes at a time when the state government is trying to enhance its outreach to investors globally to set up shop in the south Indian state

Karnataka chief minister B.S. Yediyurappa on Sunday said the proposed toys cluster in Koppala, about 351 km from Bengaluru, has the potential to create 40,000 jobs and attract over Rs5,000 crore in investments.

“In line with PM @narendramodi’s vision of #VocalForLocal & boosting toy manufacturing, Koppala will have India’s first toy manufacturing cluster. With the eco-system to support toy cluster in place, this 400 acres SEZ will have top-class infra & generate 40,000 jobs in 5 years,” Yediyurappa posted on Twitter.

The post comes at a time when the state government is trying to enhance its outreach to investors globally to set up shop in the south Indian state. With reduced cash inflows from the Centre, impact of the covid-19 induced lockdown, floods and fledgeling finances, Karnataka is looking to bring in investments and jobs to mitigate the crisis in the calamity-prone state.
