Addressing a meeting on the occasion, Rao said that the State government would develop the layout and allot the house plots measuring 100 yards each of the land oustee of the park. “The setting up of units at the Kakatiya Mega Textile Park was slowed down due to the conditions affected by the Covid-19.

However, 20 to 25 manufacturing units will be set up in 16 to 18 months at India’s largest textile park,” Rao said. “With the setting up of the units, 30,000 workers will get direct employment, and 20,000 people get indirect employment,” he said. Appreciating the people for giving a total of 1300 acres of their lands to the park, Rao said that he was expressing his gratitude by ‘bowing down to their feet’. Responding to several requests by local MLA Challa Dharma Reddy, Rama Rao said that Rs 10 additional funds would be sanctioned for the development of Parkal town, and also promised to sanction more number of the Dalit Bandhu units and 2BHK houses to the people of the Parkal constituency.
