Thiruvananthapuram, May 21
The State Government has held exploratory discussions with Tamil Nadu with regard to development of the proposed Kochi-Coimbatore industrial corridor.
This was stated here by the Minister for Industries, Mr Elamaram Kareem, while inaugurating the National Resource Centre for Industrial Development (NRCID) being set up by the Kerala State Industrial Development Corporation (KSIDC).
The NRCID would act as a window to facilitate dissemination of industry-related information to stakeholders.
The Minister said that discussions with the Tamil Nadu Government were aimed at setting up a combined agency for developing the proposed industrial corridor.

On completion, this is expected to trigger all-round development of the Coimbatore-Kanjiikode belt straddling the inter-State border as also around downstream Thrissur and Kochi in Kerala.
An international agency would be commissioned to take up a feasibility study on the project. .
