मध्य प्रदेश के धार में विकसित हो रहा PM MITRA Park, भारत के वस्त्र उद्योग को नई गति देने वाला है। कपास से धागा, कपड़ा निर्माण और तैयार वस्त्रों तक की पूरी प्रक्रिया एक ही स्थान पर होने से निवेश और निर्यात को बढ़ावा मिलेगा।
साथ ही, लाखों रोजगार के अवसर सृजित होंगे और वैश्विक वस्त्र बाजार में भारत की अग्रणी भूमिका को और मजबूती मिलेगी।
