Mr Mitra made the comments following a meeting with 20 tannery owners from Kanpur and Chennai, in which they expressed how impressed they were with the facilities at the complex, according to reports in the Indian media. There will be 25 acres of land set aside for these units.
They are expected to create 6,000 direct jobs and a further 4,000 indirect jobs as a result of the development of the complex. As well as the units, the state government is also targeting the establishment of a new waste management system, a leather design institute and a leather training institute.
