Under the GRID policy, the State is planning to develop the IT industries in different locations in the city and the State and not just concentrate the industry in one part of Hyderabad – which is the Western corridor. The State has already approved IT parks in Uppal, Nagole and LB Nagar other than setting IT towers in tier-2 towns like Karimnagar, Khammam and Warangal, among others.
