The Punjab Small Industries Corporation (PSIC) has evolved a comprehensive plan for the improvement of infrastructure in existing small industrial estates functioning across the province.
Official sources told Business Recorder here that during current fiscal year more than Rs 170 million would be spent on infrastructure programme in the province. Under the programme, Rs 74.0 million would be spent on improvement of roads, drains, etc, in Small Industrial Estates-1 and Small Industrial Estate-2 in Gujranwala.
Last year, special attention was accorded on the improvement of min- industrial estate Daska and more than 80 percent development work on roads and drains was completed, while remaining 20 percent work would be accomplished within three months.

Daska is a hub of agri-tools and producing quality agricultural machinery and this cluster centre set up in mini estate Daska would help the manufacturers engaged with agriculture machinery production to further improve the quality of machinery sources said.
