Chandigarh, Nov 12
Under the leadership of Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, Haryana has taken a major step towards becoming one of India’s most investor-friendly states by implementing nine key reforms and fast-tracking 13 more under its deregulation initiative.
The Haryana State Pollution Control Board (HSPCB) has cut clearance timelines from 30 to 21 days for Consent to Establish (CTE) and Consent to Operate (CTO).
Auto-renewal of CTOs up to 15 years has been introduced for green industries. The board has also reclassified 734 non-polluting industries under the 'white category,' exempting them from routine inspections.
Haryana has also implemented its own version of the Jan Vishwas framework, decriminalising minor offenses and introducing civil penalties.
