UP will become the new textile hub of the country, mega textile park being built in Lucknow
Uttar Pradesh is accelerating its industrial growth under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, with a major push in the textile sector. A large-scale Mega Textile Park is being developed in Lucknow, which is expected to position the state as a leading textile hub in India.
The project is being implemented under the Central Government’s PM MITRA (Prime Minister Mega Integrated Textile Regions and Apparel) scheme. Around 1,000 acres of land has been acquired for the park, and nearly ₹990 crore is being invested in developing world-class infrastructure.
A key highlight of the project is the creation of a complete textile value chain within a single integrated hub—from “farm to fiber, fiber to fabric, and fabric to fashion.” This integrated ecosystem is expected to reduce production costs, improve efficiency, and strengthen the competitiveness of industries in global markets.
The PM MITRA initiative has already attracted investment interest worth over ₹63,000 crore across seven proposed textile parks in the country. Each park is projected to generate around 3 lakh direct and indirect employment opportunities, offering significant job prospects for the youth.
The Uttar Pradesh government is also focusing on strong infrastructure support, including well-developed road networks, reliable electricity supply, water availability, and logistics connectivity, making the park highly attractive for domestic and global investors.
This Mega Textile Park marks a major step toward transforming Uttar Pradesh into a self-reliant and employment-driven industrial state. In the coming years, it is expected to boost investment, exports, and overall industrial development, further strengthening the state’s economy.
