Land acquisition for the Tumakuru Node, an Industrial Manufacturing Hub project, is advancing as planned, according to Large and Medium Industries Minister M.B. Patil. Speaking virtually at the third meeting of the Apex Monitoring Authority, Patil stated that the project is set to be completed by 2027. The state government has designated 1,736 acres of land in Tumakuru for this purpose.
With the potential to draw an investment of ₹7,000 crore and create over 88,000 jobs, the Tumakuru Node is part of the Bengaluru–Chennai Industrial Corridor. Currently, 30% of the project has been completed in terms of physical progress and 20% in financial terms. Of the allocated land, 300 acres are earmarked for a Japan Industrial Township, while 200 acres are set aside for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs).
Jindal Aluminium is the primary investor and has received 151 acres, while 41 acres are designated for institutional use. The node aims to prioritize sectors such as food and beverages, textiles, apparel, electronics, chemicals, general engineering, and logistics. Patil also mentioned that the PM MITRA Industrial Park in Kalaburagi, along with projects under the ‘BHAVYA’ initiative, are expected to be completed soon.
