DEHRA DUN: The Uttarakhand government has urged the Centre to provide a more attractive industrial package for the hill state on the lines of the one for the North-East.
"I have written a letter to the Centre urging them to award a more attractive industrial package, comprising more excise and income tax exemptions to Uttarakhand on the lines of North-Eastern states package," Chief Minister B C Khanduri told a press conference here today.
Uttarakhand is already enjoying the central industrial package which will run till March 2010. The state needed a more attractive package as its geographic conditions are quite difficult and it is industrially backward like the North- Eastern states, Khanduri said.
