General
Information
The
State of Kerala has attained worldwide acclaim for its
achievements in improving the physical quality of life of the
people, and in the creation of social infrastructure,
particularly in health and education systems. While this focus
has led to an all round quality of life that is significantly
superior to that of other Indian States, industrial growth has
not been commensurate with the State's potential.
Although various
initiatives have been taken in the recent past for promoting
industrial growth, bold and forward looking measures would be
required if Kerala is to capitalize on its unique strengths,
and attain its deserved position as a leading industrial State
in the region. This policy, accordingly, seeks to provide a
strong impetus to the industrial growth of the State.
The
Government recognizes that for promoting rapid industrial
development, there should be a basic measure of agreement
between the various stakeholders and interest groups about the
desired policy objectives and the means of their attainment;
between present and prospective investors, the workforce and
trade unions, and informed public opinion. In pursuit,
therefore, of uniform and consensual policy initiatives in
related areas, this policy is being announced in conjunction
with a progressive labour policy.
