Only 16 factories on 33,000 acres: Reasons behind the Special Economic Zone failure

The Special Economic Zone (SEZ) project is currently facing significant operational hurdles. Although 33,000 acres of land have been designated for these zones, only 16 factories have managed to commence operations so far.

Key factors contributing to this lack of progress include:

  • Persistent delays in infrastructure development.
  • Critical shortages in utility services.
  • A lack of essential support networks for the workforce.
