Karnataka has already attracted Rs 10,000 crore worth investments for its proposed Bangalore Aerospace Park.
According to Mr M.N. Vidya Shankar, Secretary for Commence and Industry, the aerospace park will come up near the Bangalore international airport near Devanahalli on 968 acres.
For developing Bangalore Aero Park, the State government's High Level Clearance Committee, headed by the Chief Minister, Mr D.V. Sadananda Gowda, recently cleared the proposal of Sun Forest City Ventures Ltd.
Sun Forest City is planning to build Bangalore Aerospace Park (named Project Vayu) with a complete ecosystem for aerospace industries. The total project cost is Rs 9,394 crore.
The project is expected to be taken up in three phases, spread over 12 years and is likely to offer employment to 2.42 lakh people.
Mr Vidya Shankar said “The project developer has already lined up major aerospace investments to the tune of Rs 10,000 crore for its phase I and has already given us time lines for executing phase II and III.”
