Textile mill being planned in Warangal

The Central government mulling over setting up a textile mill in Warangal district, Andhra at a investment of Rs. 300 crore , Union Textile Minister Kavuri Sambasiva Rao has said while addressing the farmers after inaugurating an automatic dupion reeling machine and a market yard for silk worms in Jangaon town on Saturday.

He urged the unemployed youth to take up silk worm cultivation. If the youth are ready to acquire the skills, they can eradicate unemployment problem from the country and can earn around Rs. 2 lakh per annum, by growing mulberry plants in one acre said Mr. Sambasiva Rao.

Encouraging the agriculture and allied sectors, he said that the farmers should be guaranteed minimum returns for their produce.
