Punjab Govt to simplify procedure for grant of NOC to industry

Chandigarh, Nov 16 (UNI) The Punjab Government has decided to simplify its procedure for quick disposal of cases for grant of "no objection certificate" to industry besides allowing enhancement in the power load of existing units.

The decision follows a meeting of representatives of industry and Pollution Control Board with Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal and Minister of Science and Technology, Public Health and Public Relations Bikram Singh Majithia here.

Mr Majithia said today that for long industry had been insisting on simplification of the existing procedure as it was not only cumbersome but also led to undue delays.
