In Kannauj, which is renowned for producing the essence (attar) used in perfumes, the first phase of the international perfume park project has finally been finished and is ready for investment.
According to officials, the UPSIDA has purchased a further 18 acres close to the GT route and the Lucknow-Agra Motorway for the second phase.
An issue of political sparring for many years, the project was conceived during the tenure of the Samajwadi Party government as India’s first-ever International Perfume Museum and Aroma Park.
Over the last few months, Uttar Pradesh State Industrial Development Authority has completed all the pending works and the first phase on 31 acres land was ready, said Prem Prakash, additional chief executive officer (ACEO).
“Roads, electricity and CNG supply are in place while work is under way to complete the overhead water tank for water supply,” he said.
