YEIDA toy park: India’s big step to beat China in toy industry, production to start in 100-acre toy park
New Delhi: UP is making its mark as a leading state in realizing Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Self-reliant India and Make in India mission. In this direction, many projects are being conducted in the state under the guidance of Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath. The toy park cluster under construction at Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YIDA) is also proving to be an important link in this. Foundation stone laying and inauguration programs of industrial units are being organized continuously in this toy park being established in Sector 33. There is a possibility that in the next one year the industrial units to be set up here will also start their production. This means that soon with the help of this toy park, India’s toy market will move forward in the direction of surpassing China and establishing its dominance on the world stage. It is noteworthy that the toy made in India is exported to about 50 countries of the world. After the construction of this toy park, along with more production, more exports will also be ensured.
142 plots were allotted
Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) Chairman Anil Kumar Sagar laid the foundation stone for the construction works of industrial units in the Toy Park being set up in Sector 33 on Saturday itself. A toy park is being constructed by the authority on an area of 100 acres in Sector 33.
