Puducherry: The Centre is gearing up to transform the coastal belt of the Union Territory of Puducherry into an economic powerhouse. Senior BJP leader and Union Home Minister Amitbhai Shah, while addressing a mega election meeting at Tirukkannur today, announced that a huge industrial corridor will soon be developed in Puducherry. Also, plans to develop the region as a'Blue Economy Hub'( marine-based economy) are in full swing. Puducherry's big step in manufacturing. Listing the development works, Amitbhai Shah said that a laptop manufacturing unit with an annual production capacity of 3 lakh units has been set up in Puducherry in collaboration with the Centre. This unit has not only created new opportunities in the technology sector, but also created new employment opportunities for the local youth.

Taking a swipe at the previous Congress government on the issue of high unemployment, Amitbhai Shah said that Puducherry had reached a bleak figure of 47% during Narayan's regime.
