ITANAGAR, Mar 30:  The Arunachal Pradesh Micro and Small Industries Development Association (APM&SIDA) has claimed that the state government is neglecting the  implementation of various state industrial schemes, which have the potential to generate huge income for the state.
Addressing the media persons at the press club today, President APM&SIDA  Lindum Rana said that the state government during the year 2020-21 budget session announced the Arunachal Pradesh Industrial & Investment Policy 2020, of Rs 5 Crore, however, the amount was cut down to Rs 3 Crore.
‘The association has no issue with the cut down of amount but the state government hasn’t properly implemented various sachems under the proposed budget announcement. Many entrepreneurs applied for the scheme and it’s been a year there is no response to the application from the concerned state industry department. Therefore, we appeal to the concerned Industry minister to immediately look into the matter for the welfare of young entrepreneurs,” he said.
Rana said the implementation of the public procurement policy of MSME in the state is very important. Therefore, he sought the intervention of the state government in the matter and accordingly urged to implement the procurement policy. Likewise, we also appeal for the sanction of funds to the applicants who have applied under Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Swalamban Yojana, he added.    
The association has also appealed to the state government to implement startup India and MUDRA Scheme, implementation of MSME facilitation Council, to functionalize Entrepreneurship Development Institute (EDI) at Jote and proper implementation of Prime Minister Employment Generation Programme (PMEGP).
