Himachal Pradesh’s Chamba district is all set to get its first cement plant which will not only will provide employment but will also help in eradicating poverty.
Member of Parliament Shanta Kumar has stated that the plant is likely to come up in Sikridhar area by October. Chamba shares its borders with Punjab and Jammu & Kashmir.
“It is the most favourable time when the BJP is in power both at the Centre as well as the state. The government has been decided that a cement plant would be inaugurated before October this year,” Shanta Kumar said while addressing media persons at Palampur.
She also said that to minimise the environmental hazards due to cement plant, aid of technology will be taken.
There is also plans for ropeway in Dhauladhar region.
“A ropeway will also come up this year in the area. This is the only valley near to snowline with unique features across the world. Ropeway have a potential to take at least 4000 people to higher hills, if they could be accommodated there” said Shanta Kumar.
