Understanding the PM-MITRA Scheme
The PM-MITRA (Pradhan Mantri Mega Integrated Textile Region and Apparel) scheme is a Government of India initiative aimed at strengthening the textile sector.
PM-MITRA Scheme Objectives
The primary objective of the PM-MITRA scheme is to develop world-class industrial infrastructure for the textile sector. This involves establishing 'Mega Integrated Textile Region and Apparel' (MITRA) parks.
- These parks offer state-of-the-art infrastructure, enabling large-scale textile manufacturing and processing.
- The focus is on creating integrated facilities that cover spinning, weaving, processing, dyeing, printing, and garment manufacturing within a single location.
Evaluating the Options
Based on the scheme's objectives:
- Option 1: Incorrect. The scheme does not focus on energy parks.
- Option 2: Correct. The PM-MITRA scheme explicitly aims at developing integrated textile parks.
- Option 3: Incorrect. While employment is generated, the primary goal isn't opening employment parks in every district.
- Option 4: Incorrect. The scheme is focused on textiles, not agro parks.
Therefore, the statement that the PM-MITRA scheme aims at developing integrated textile parks in India is correct.
