Delhi-Mumbai
Industrial Corridor Is A Mega Infra-Structure Project Of USD 90 Billion With
The Financial & Technical Aids From Japan, Covering An Overall Length Of
1483 KMs Between The Political Capital And The Business Capital Of India, I.E.
Delhi And Mumbai.
A
MOU Was Signed In December 2006 between Vice Minister, Ministry Of Economy,
Trade And Industry (METI) Of Government Of Japan And Secretary, Department Of
Industrial Policy & Promotion (DIPP). A Final Project Concept Was Presented
To Both The Prime Ministers During Premier Abe's Visit To India In August 2007.
Finally
Government Of India Has Announced Establishing Of The Multi-Modal High Axle
Load Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) Between Delhi And Mumbai, Covering An
Overall Length Of 1483 Km And Passing Through The Six States - U.P, NCR Of
Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan, Gujarat And Maharashtra, With End Terminals At Dadri
In The National Capital Region Of Delhi And Jawaharlal Nehru Port Near Mumbai.
Distribution Of Length Of The Corridor Indicates That Rajasthan (39%) And
Gujarat (38%) Together Constitute 77% Of The Total Length Of The Alignment Of
Freight Corridor, Followed By Haryana And Maharashtra 10% Each And Uttar
Pradesh And National Capital Region Of Delhi 1.5 % Of Total Length Each. This
Dedicated Freight Corridor Envisages A High-Speed Connectivity For High Axle
Load Wagons (25 Tonne) Of Double Stacked Container Trains Supported By High
Power Locomotives. The Delhi - Mumbai Leg Of The Golden Quadrilateral National
Highway Also Runs Almost Parallel To The Freight Corridor. This Corridor Will
Be Equipped With An Array Of Infrastructure Facilities Such As Power
Facilities, Rail Connectivity To Ports En Route Etc. Approximately 180 Million
People, 14 Percent Of The Population, Will Be Affected By The Corridor's
Development.
This
Project Incorporates Nine Mega Industrial Zones Of About 200-250 Sq. Km., High
Speed Freight Line, Three Ports, And Six Air Ports; A Six-Lane
Intersection-Free Expressway Connecting The Country's Political And Financial
Capitals And A
4000
MW Power Plant. Several Industrial Estates And Clusters, Industrial Hubs, With
Top-Of-The-Line Infrastructure Would Be Developed Along This Corridor To
Attract More Foreign Investment. Funds For The Projects Would Come From The
Indian Government, Japanese Loans, And Investment By Japanese Firms And Through
Japan Depository Receipts Issued By The Indian Companies.
This
High-Speed Connectivity Between Delhi And Mumbai Offers Immense Opportunities
For Development Of An Industrial Corridor Along The Alignment Of The Connecting
Infrastructure. A Band Of 150 Km (Influence Region) Has Been Chosen On Both
Sides Of The Freight Corridor To Be Developed As The Delhi-Mumbai Industrial
Corridor. The Vision For DMIC Is To Create Strong Economic Base In This Band
With Globally Competitive Environment And State-Of-The-Art Infrastructure To
Activate Local Commerce, Enhance Foreign Investments, Real-Estate Investments
And Attain Sustainable Development. In Addition To The Influence Region, DMIC
Would Also Include Development Of Requisite Feeder Rail/Road Connectivity To
Hinterland/Markets And Select Ports Along The Western Coast.
It
Is Also Envisaged That The Alignment Of The Proposed Corridor Will Have Nine
Junction Stations For Exchange Of Traffic Between The Existing Railway System
And The DFC. The Junctions Are:
*
Vasai Road: To Cater To Traffic To/From Mumbai, Other Than J.Nehru Port
*
Gothangam: For Traffic To/From Hazira Complex, Jalgaon-Udhna
*
Makarpura (Vadodara): For Traffic To/From Ahmedabad, Vadodara And Vadodara
-Godhra Routes
*
Amli Road (Sabarmati): For Traffic To/From ICD-Sabarmati, ViramgamSabarmati
Route, Ahmedabad, Rajkot And Bhavnagar Divisions Of Western Railway
*
Palanpur: For Traffic To/From Kandla/ Mundra Ports And Gandhidham Area
*
Marwar Junction: For Traffic From/To Jodhpur Area (And LCD-Jodhpur)
*
Phulera: For Traffic To/From Jaipur- Tundla And Jaipur-Sawai Madhopur
Routes'
*
Rewari: For Traffic To/From Rewari-Hissar-Ludhiana/Bathinda Routes'
*
Pirthala (Tughlakabad): For Traffic To/From Tughlakabad (And ICDTughalakabad)
Delhi-Mumbai
Industrial Corridor Is To Be Conceived As A Model Industrial Corridor Of
International Standards With Emphasis On Expanding The Manufacturing And
Services Base And Develop DMIC As The 'Global Manufacturing And Trading Hub'.
The Government Is Considering This Ambitious Project To Establish, Promote And
Facilitate Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor To Augment And Create Social And
Physical Infrastructure On The Route Which Is World Class And Will Help
Spurring Economic Growth Of The Region.
Integrated
Corridor Development Approach For DMIC
High
Impact/ Market Driven Nodes - Integrated Investment Regions (IRs) And
Industrial Areas (IAs) Have Been Identified Within The Corridor To Provide Transparent
And Investment Friendly Facility Regimes. These Regions Are Proposed To Be
Self-Sustained Industrial Townships With World-Class Infrastructure, Road And
Rail Connectivity For Freight Movement To And From Ports And Logistics Hubs,
Served By Domestic/ International Air Connectivity, Reliable Power, Quality
Social Infrastructure, And Provide A Globally Competitive Environment Conducive
For Setting Up Businesses. An Investment Region (IRs) Would Be A Specifically
Delineated Industrial Region With A Minimum Area Of Over 200 Square Kilometers
(20,000 Hectares), While An Industrial Area (IAs) Would Be Developed With A
Minimum Area Of Over 100 Square Kilometers (10,000 Hectares). 24 Such Nodes - 9
IRs And 15 IAs Spanning Across Six States Have Been Identified After Wide
Consultations With The Stakeholders I.E The State Governments And The Concerned
Central Ministries. It Is Proposed That 6 IR And 6 IAs Would Be Taken Up For
Implementation In The First Phase During 2008-2012 And Rest Of The Development
Would Be Phased Out In The Next 4 Years.
