The Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (HSIIDC) has appointed 16 relationship managers to convert MoUs signed during the 'Happening Haryana Global Investors' Summit-2016' into projects by handholding investors and ensuring their implementation.
This was disclosed by Haryana Industries Minister Captain Abhimanyu today, who was replying to a Calling Attention Notice in the Budget Session of the Haryana Vidhan Sabha here today.
He said the Haryana Enterprises Promotion Bill-2016 had already been prepared and would be placed on the table of the House very shortly.

For projects with investment more than Rs 10 crore and involving CLU cases of more than one acre land will be cleared by the Empowered Executive Committee under PSCM.
Projects with investment up to Rs 10 crore and CLU cases up to one acre in conforming zones will be cleared by District Level Clearance Committee headed by a Deputy Commissioner.
The Executive Empowered Committee will also review the implementation of MoUs in its meeting periodically. Land would be made available from the developed land bank. The HSIIDC had also started the system of Online Geo-referenced Display to provide information to investors regarding vacant land in industrial estates.
The minister said that to propel the state to the next level of growth trajectory, the state came out with a path-breaking 'Enterprises Promotion Policy-2015' (EPP) in August 2015.
This policy envisions GDP growing at a rate higher than 8 per cent, an investment of Rs 1 lakh crore and employment generation for four lakh persons by positioning Haryana as a pre-eminent investment destination.
According to the minister, immediately after the announcement of the new Enterprises Promotion Policy-2015, visits were undertaken to the US and Canada in August 2015 for marketing Haryana as an ideal investment destination and for highlighting facilitations and incentives.
Capt Abhimanyu added, "Happening Haryana had the benefit of central Cabinet Ministers, including Manohar Parrikar, Piyush Goel and Kalraj Mishra, personally chairing all our technical sessions."
Ambassadors and High Commissioners of 12 partner countries from China, Czech Republic, Japan, Spain, UK, Mauritius, Malawi, New Zealand, Peru, South Korea, Tunisia and Canada attended the summit, besides participation by delegations from nearly 15 countries.
"More than 3,000 delegates attended the summit, which included 160 foreign delegates. In spite of the disturbances that took place in February 2016, the overwhelming participation in the event only reinforced the faith reposed by investors in the state Government," he added.
