No investor will leave Karnataka for want of land, says industries minister MB Patil

Karnataka has enough land to offer to investors, said the state industries minister, MB Patil, after Andhra Pradesh IT & electronics minister Nara Lokesh wooed investors to his state on learning about the government’s decision to drop land acquisition for an aerospace park near Bengaluru.

Lokesh, in a post on X, said he was sorry to hear about the land issues while urging aerospace investors to look at Andhra Pradesh. “We have an attractive aerospace policy for you, with best-in-class incentives and over 8000 acres of ready-to-use land (just outside Bengaluru)! Hope to see you soon to talk across the table.”
